ClubHeadBangBang Present:
_C Joynes
Cambridge based acoustic guitarist C Joynes uses a heavy thumb-led finger-picking technique that harks back to traditional country-blues and early ragtime, however, he uses this technique to explore alternative melodic traditions: the English folk-tune; North and West African music; elements of classical Indian music; proto-minimalist and impressionist musics from the European classical tradition.
His approach to the recording and compositional process contains a subtle and unassuming experimentation, at times including collaged fragments, field recordings, processing, en-plein-air recordings, and cut-and-paste.
His latest EP "LHR Twins" is out now out Rusted Rail.
“A deeply personal music that springs from and clings to folk roots: perhaps the composted soil of some not-quite-knowable sonic terroir. Further benefiting from that ground and sense of spaciousness is something else at the heart of Joynes’ expression: fret-buzzes, string rattles, and other sounds become part of the music in a subtle-but-clear way - something that has endeared Joynes to fans of free jazz and pure improv." - Dusted Magazine
