Leon Hunt

'Miles Apart'

Released: May 2004
CAT# GGRCD005

Leon Hunt’s first solo offering, Miles Apart is a true ‘transatlantic session’ with as much of the recording taking place in Nashville, TN as in Leon’s home town of Bath, England. Miles Apart features some of the best acoustic musicians from both the US and the UK and effortlessly spans several musical disciplines. Most noticeable are Bluegrass, Jazz and Celtic music, styles that Leon describes as being; “natural bed partners… whilst Bill Monroe was embracing his Scottish heritage Earl Scruggs was busy re-working New Orleans jazz tunes – bluegrass music has always provided a strong connection between traditional music and more improvisational forms of music like jazz”. !

Featuring:
Michael McGoldrick, Stuart Duncan, Flook, Viktor Krauss, David Grier, Daily Planet, Matt Flinner, Rob Ickes & Ben Winship.
