John Hunt of the Blues Legends ensemble brings another Edinburgh Fringe show to the Partially Seated venue. Hunt plays blues and swing on handmade guitars he built himself from cannibalised and recycled materials, including a B&Q shelf and papier-mache. The 60-minute show features a unique take on Sinatra alongside a James Bond mash-up, drawing on deep south blues traditions. Tickets are £9 and the show is suitable for ages 12 and over.
Why see this show?
A musician who builds his own instruments from a B&Q shelf and papier-mache and then plays them with genuine virtuosity is worth seeing. Multiple Fringe appearances suggest a performer who has found an audience because the music actually delivers.
