Showman & Coole - Super Deluxe Fiddle, Banjo and Song
Through twenty years and a couple of thousand shows together in bands such as The
Foggy Hogtown Boys and The Lonesome Ace Stringband, John Showman and Chris
Coole have developed a deep and instinctual musical bond.? Their music lurks in a truly
unique space that is somewhere on the outskirts of old-time, bluegrass, and folk. The
songs of John Hartford, Hank Williams, Dock Boggs, and The Band share space with
the fiddle tunes of Eck Robertson and Ed Haley. The duo?s original songs and tunes
take in all these vistas and paint something both personal and timely.?
They have performed across North America and Europe at festivals such as Merlefest,
Celtic Connections, Rockygrass, Winnipeg Folk Festival, Mariposa, Wintergrass,
Gooikroots, and The John Hartford Memorial Festival. In 2022, the duo released two
albums; ??Afield??a collection of old-time fiddle tunes, and???Much Further Out than
Inevitable ? A Tribute to Some Music of John Hartford.??They are currently releasing
a steady stream of new and original singles on all online platforms and working
compiling this new music on CD and vinyl in time for January 2026.
Green Note was founded by two friends and passionate music lovers who wanted to create their ideal place to hang out in London...
Our dream was to create a place where we could share music that we loved – somewhere with a laid back, intimate and friendly atmosphere. Becoming friends in our school days, the seed for our idea was planted many years ago. After lots of hard work, many ups and downs, and learning more than we ever could have imagined along the way, our dream became a reality when Green Note opened its doors in the Summer of 2005. Now in our fourteenth year, we have established a reputation as one of London’s best spots for roots, world and acoustic music, and we’re constantly astonished by the wealth of incredible musicians who grace our stage. We’re really proud of what we have created, and happy to be able to share it with you.
