AN ENGAGING & SKILFUL REMINDER OF THE PLEASURES OF LIVE MUSIC.......
( REVIEW - BUXTON FRINGE FESTIVAL )
Review
Sideways Duo are
Peter Buxton guitar vocals
Richard Smith Harmonica
​
Sideways are a Blues Jazz Duo who revel in the joys
of playing live.
Harmonica, guitar and vocals intertwine with an energised and varied repertoire of atmospheric songs
with a sprinkling of original numbers.
Peter Buxton - solo artist, writer ( & former front man for
Herding Catz Bluesband ) combines with
Richard Smith, virtuoso master of the harp in every sense.
They present a unique and energised interpretation of songs you know, together with original material presented with a passion for great music . Their coming together by chance has enabled their considerable joint energy and skills to make an impact on the SW music scene. Both have toured extensively in the UK and abroad.
Some lively passionately played music, humour &
engaging stories are assured.

BIO
Peter Buxton Guitar Vocals
Singer songwriter
Combining an unmatched passion for music with an energy and commitment to the best in music, Sideways have built a solid following by word of mouth in both the South West of England and the High Peak District where he is from.
As an experienced musician, mover and shaker,
Peters writing paints a picture and develops with the listener to produce reflection, emotion and close observation into the people, places and relationships that surround him.
This is usually accompanied with a dose of wry ironic humour.
Here, on the Site you can stay up to date on latest developments on live gigs, blogs news and personal views, along with sparkling new songs. They may be about romance, the difficulties of life or just about everyday simple things that are easily taken for granted.
Alwaysto using creative music to look at life in a Sideways fashion.
From romantic, to the day to day mundane
