Her love of traditional music brought her to North Carolina as a teenager where she fully immersed herself in the music of the region and became a sought-after clawhammer banjo player after releasing an album with the Macrae Sisters in 2008 that received glowing reviews in both Sing Out! And The Old Time Herald Magazine. Barry’s banjo playing ranges from thrilling and high-octane to moody and captivating\, and his versatility shines whether playing clawhammer or driving three-finger banjo. Also a great guitarist\, adept in many styles of playing he has been consistently active in the UK Old Time and Bluegrass scene for the last decade playing with multiple groups. Harmony singing and thoughtful song writing bring this Old Time band to the stage with a compelling take on the music that moves them; foot-stomping dance tunes\, innovative fiddle-banjo compositions and heartfelt and inspired harmony singing. Whether they are singing centuries-old ballads\, their own songs\, or getting you up and dancing with a barn-burning fiddle tune\, they remain firmly rooted in tradition\, paying homage to the depth and richness of the music. Whether performing as a duo or as a four piece The Horsenecks continue to set a new standard in today’s traditional music scene with years of touring under their belts and appearances at major festivals in the USA and the UK\, including the Cornwall Bluegrass Festival\, Doolin Folk Festival\, The Portland Old Time Gathering\, and the Minnesota Bluegrass and Old Time Festival. They received critical acclaim for their first two albums\, released in 2016 and 2018. Their third album is set to be released later this year.
