I was a late starter to harping, only beginning to play in my fifties. Thanks to my harp teacher, Sarah Deere-Jones, and the ensemble she formed, I had a lot of fun playing with the ensemble when we visited Denmark, Seattle & Vancouver, and went busking in Switzerland!) I play lever or folk harp, and love it!

The quintessential troubadour, Hull-born & London-based Steve Dagleish follows a long line of great guitarist-singer-songwriters. His beautifully compassionate songs range from the personal to the political, always sung with searing honesty and a razor-sharp focus on the things that truly matter. Steve's live shows regularly sell out on London's acoustic circuit (Green Note, Slaughtered Lamb, Old Queen's Head, etc) and his two albums to date have had tracks featured on BBC Introducing (Bob Fischer) & 6Music (Tom Robinson).
