Peter Buxton guitar vocals

Richard Smith Harmonica

Sideways are a Blues Jazz Duo who  revel in the joys of playing live ( and all that it entails).

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 and former front man for Herding Catz Bluesband) combines with Richard Smith, virtuoso master of the harp in every sense.

They present a unique and experienced interpretation of songs you know, and some you won't with a passion for great music old and new.Their coming together by chance has enabled their impact on the SW music scene and both have toured extensively in the UK and abroad.

Some lively Blues and banter is assured.

All About Peter Buxton

Peter Buxton is a singer songwriter now relocated from the Peak District of Derbyshire to the beautiful coastal landscape of Dorset.

what could be more inspirational?

He has an innovative approach to his songs and musical profile, fuelled by the buzzing London   cultural scene of his wilder years,  which contrasts with  the different world of the Northern landscape, trains and pits  he grew up with.

His songs often speak or observe the ironies of the landscape and relationships he sees around him.

Fluently moving between genres, Indie songwriting and Blues / Jazz play a great part in his creativity.

His songs often speak with sharpness and observations about  the landscapes ans relationships he is surrounded by.

Peter is essentially a live performance musician, and loves to draw people into a close, engaging relationship.
He has performed around the

UK & Europe for many years.
