I like the way the Cigar Box Guitars sound though! Songsmith Sessions at The Alma (Canjo) - My first time playing in a pub!!tag:www.cigarboxnation.com,2011-12-08:2592684:Video:9098682011-12-08T14:36:31.172Zbemuzichttps://www.cigarboxnation.com/profile/bemuzic

</a> <br></br>The Songsmith Sessions are held every Weds in The Alma in Cambridge.<br></br>
I'd been along to watch a few times to see if I could imagine playing there, but was a bit daunted by the really high standard of musicians!!<br></br>
As it's getting so cold busking though, I thought I'd brave playing in a nice warm pub.<br></br>

Getting my little Canjo out, when people had been playing their super duper instruments was pretty scary, but it went down really well!<br />
A slightly surreal experience having people join in and dance : -)<br />
Tom was saying "Harold" as when I started it reminded him of the music from Steptoe and Son <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRaiiT3ZnJw">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRaiiT3ZnJw</a><br />
I did three songs as well with a Cigar Box Guitar which I'll post some clips of soon.<br />
A really enjoyable evening, and good to feel it was ok to make mistakes - I forgot to put my capo on on one song, forgot to switch a pedal on on another...in fact I think I made some kind of false start on all of them, but it was OK!!<br />
<br />
The guy joining in is Tom Dalpra, one of the guys running it. Check this vid of him a few decades ago, brilliant!!!

I kept things very simple and stripped back on this, so the songs would sound like they do when I play them busking (minus the noise of lorries reversing, large groups of chattering tourists, bagpipe players, builders drilling and banging,…

I know I hate it if I hear someone live, then buy a CD and it doesn't have the same feel at all, as it has loads of tracks and effects.<br />
I used a Red Dog Cigar Box Guitar on the first track, and a Cigar Box Guitar strummer by tinyguitars on track five.<br />
On the other ten songs I used instruments I've made myself : -)
