A gig held at Friendly Records on Saturday 2nd April. The event starts at 19:00.
Buck passes by Friendly Records, fresh from supporting guitar instrumentalist Gwenifer Raymond for a relaxed early evening strum. Buck has toured extensively throughout the US, UK, and Europe with his band Arborea, performing key shows and festivals including Green Man Festival & Philadelphia Folk Festival.
Buck's playing draws from the deep well of 1960s Folk & Rock, guitar explorers such as Robbie Basho, Bert Jansch & Davy Graham with the song lyricism of Peter Green & Tim Buckley.
Renowned US music blog Aquarium Drunkard & Folk Radio UK listed both his 2018 & 2020 album, No Love is Sorrow in their albums of the year list.
In 2020 he performed a Tiny Desk Concert from his apartment in Bergamo, Italy.
He'll be playing 7pm & in the Friendly surrounds this will be a real treat.
Free though we'll be passing the hat.

Praise for Buck:
'What's most compelling about this music it's the ability to tell a story and to form emotions with just a few strokes of the guitar and snapshot of a melody'
Vanessa Ague/The Wire Magazine
''No Love Is Sorrow' is a beautiful piece of work, interspersing space, atmospheric instrumentals with more complete songs. Curran sings with the gravelly decorum of Mark Lanegan but the songs remain, bewitchingly, just over the next horizon'
