ABOUT THE JONES FAMILY
"With
close harmonies, multi instrumentation, an instant rapport with the audience
and a great mixture of traditional and contemporary songs the Jones Family
certainly have it all. Brian Jones is of course well known throughout the
North West as a member of TTB, one of the most entertaining bands to ever grace
the folk scene. The word entertainment also sums up The Jones Family.
Brian, as
always, is the consummate professional welding all the parts into a great sound
and linking each song with informative introductions and gentle humour.
However, all the family play their own part.
Andrew
who has obviously inherited his musical talent from his "old man"
is equally at home on mandolin, bouzouki and bass as well as guitar and
recently completed a major tour of Australia with country star Charlie
Landsborough. Daughters Laura and Sam provide great vocals and chip in on
mandolin, bass and piano. Mum Helen also joins the line up for part of the
evening adding even further depth to their vocal presence.” D.C.M.
