Home Kate Griffin & Ford Collier

Kate Griffin & Ford Collier

Kate Griffin and Ford Collier are an exciting new arrival on the folk scene playing a mix of tunes and songs. Kate (previously from ‘Unsung Roots’) plays clawhammer, a banjo style deeply rooted in American old time music, and brings crystal clear vocals that tap directly into your primal emotions. Ford (The Drystones) on Guitar, Low D Whistle, and Tabla drums brings a blend of skills and styles that marry Celtic drive, and harmonies with Indian rhythmic language. Together the duo delight in exploring the boundaries of the contemporary folk genre with influences from contemporary Celtic, Eastern European folk, Bluegrass, and Indian classical, broadening the frontiers of the style, and infusing their joy into the audience as they go.
