Back on the TV again, this time nationally on BBC4. Friday 18th December at
7.30pm and repeated at 2.40am for you night owls. (also available on iPlayer for a limited time). "Cigar Box Blues -
The Makers Of A Revolution" is a half hour programme about the UK cigar
box guitar scene, by BAFTA nominated director Virginia Heath. I'm
really pleased to have been involved in it. It
reflects the grass roots nature of this movement, featuring interviews
with several guitar makers and players, live performances from
"Boxstock" the UK cigar box guitar festival, one of my guitar making
workshops and lots more! What's great is that although the whole cigar
box guitar revival started as an American movement, it shows a truly
British take on this thread of musical subculture.

Should be a interesting watch.
