About Me

'The best banjo player I've seen in Britain' - Don Wayne Reno, Hayseed Dixie
'Dan is just about as rock and roll as you can get with a banjo' - Leon Hunt
'The UK’s finest clawhammer banjoist' - Bath Banjo Festival
'A rising star of the new generation' - Spalding Folk Club
'The most remarkable musician I've ever seen' - Anthony Simpson, BBC
Touted as the finest banjo player in the UK, Dan Walsh is an eclectic and exciting musician with a unique style taking in folk, funk, bluegrass, jazz, rock and even Arabic. Also a singer and guitarist, he has performed throughout the UK at festivals, theatres and folk clubs including the Southbank Centre, the Sage Gateshead, Broadstairs Folk Week, Solfest and Towersey and a busy year ahead includes appearances at Sidmouth Folk Week and London's Barbican. His debut CD 'Tomorrow's Still To Come' is out now on all major internet outlets.
As well as his explosive solo performances, Dan works with sensational harmonica player Will Pound, bluegrassesers Mother's Ruin, singer Kathryn Davidson, fiddler/singer Christi Andropolis and trios Land or Sea and 100 Man Orchestra.
