“An unusual coincidence – we both trained as luthiers when we left school. Yes, both of us wanted to spend our time making guitars. Life, of course, always gets in the way somewhat and by the time our paths crossed we’d both retrained. I (Graham Vincent) had been designing furniture, then houses, got qualified and started running my own architectural practice. Dave (Mitchell) had been to University and trained as a teacher.

Once music has a hold of you it doesn’t let go easily and Dave & I found ourselves playing together in a ceilidh band called Fiddlestix.

We realised we had very similar musical tastes and both wanted to spend a lot more time playing music, so we started a duo……….

More than a decade of performing has passed and we have three albums out and are generally pretty busy (that may be an understatement!), We’ve played all over England, we’ve played in the Netherlands, and have played our way to Norway and New York onboard the Queen Mary 2.

We’ve played three of the last four Glastonburys.”
