Paddy the Busker

I am a solo performer but also love to sing and play together with others at sessions or other occasions. Since there were not many stage performances so far most people might know me as a street musician. I enjoy travelling and visiting unknown small towns and sing in pedestrian zones. For this reason I am known as Paddy the Busker since 2002. Most of the songs I sing are connected with the Scottish or Irish folk scene but I have an increasing number of pieces both from other cultures and self-penned ones in my repertoire. I accompany my singing with guitar, harmonica and a chain of tiny bells tied around my ankle. Besides I sometimes play tin whistle (at sessions) and accordion.
