Steve Turner is a pioneer of highly sophisticated English concertina song accompaniments; he’s a singer and multi-instrumentalist, playing mandolin and tenor banjo and accompanies himself on the concertina.

He has performed at folk festivals, clubs and concerts throughout the UK and toured America, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, Holland and Italy.

Steve’s performances are characterised by strong melodies and a warm connection with the audience.

“For me, in terms of song accompaniment, he is the foremost Concertina player of his generation – the master!” (Pete Heywood, Living Tradition Folk Magazine)

“One of the best voices in the business” (Vic Smith, Folk Roots)
