STEVE HICKS NEW CD RELEASE. THE ROPE DANCER

 

Steve Hick's long awaited awaited solo CD is now available. Titled "The Rope Dancer" it is a collection of instrumental pieces, plus two story songs that are hits with Steve's live audiences. The music ranges from Medieval to traditional Irish dance tunes and airs, transcriptions of piano rags and classical pieces onto contemporary fingerpicking guitar tunes. Included in the 14 tracks are brand new recordings of Temptation Rag and Si Beag Si Mor (previously only available as a demo recording for Steve's guitar workshop packages). The Rope Dancer was recorded by Neil Segrott (renowned for his live sound engineering for Tommy Emmanuel and Acoustic Avalon)at Neil's studio in Leicester UK between April and August 2005. The CD demonstrates Hick's skill as a guitar builder in addition to the fine playing shown throughout.

Available from Steve at shows (see the gig list)

With it's charming booklet design incorporating images by the famous illustrator Jean de Bosschere, The Rope Dancer will appeal to many who appreciate fine finger picking guitar.
