Lynn originally sang with the Bo Weevils, a folk-rock group based in Merseyside in the mid-late Sixties. Martin Craig played guitar & sang harmony vocals. 

Reformed as the harmony duo MG & Lynnette in 1991, Lynn & Martin performed their 'Acoustic Roots Of Rock'n'Roll' live set at a huge variety of venues; both traditional pubs & clubs and at care homes, prisons and festivals. 

In 2007, Lynn brought out her 'labour of love' nod to the Bo-Weevils album; mainly made up of traditional songs she sang with that band in the 1960s.

In 2010, Lynn released an album of some of her favourite covers, called 'Off-Grid'. This reflected the fact that the duo had moved to a former shepherd's bothy in a remote part of Scotland which had no mains electricity, gas or water services. Recording & mixing was carried out in their cottage using a generator to power the equipment.

In September, 2014 Martin remastered many of the Rock'n'Roll tracks they recorded in the 1990s as MG & Lynnette. Twenty of these songs are being released in the UK, Europe, Australia, New Zealand & Japan & other territories as 'Acoustic Roots Of Rock'n'Roll Vol 1' by The Border Rebels. 

(This latest release currently excludes the USA, Canada, Mexico, India & Pakistan, due to those countries' complex systems of collecting composers' royalties.)

There are more than 25 collaborators on Everything Is Different, musicians and engineers/mixers who Askew has met on her journey as a musician since she came to NYC from England in the eighties. Upon arriving, Askew enjoyed an embellished career playing alongside music icons such as Peter Gabriel, Laurie Anderson, Joe Jackson and Quincy Jones.

Martin & Lynn's first band was the Bo-Weevils, a early UK folk-rock outfit based on Merseyside in the mid-late 1960s. They played a mixture of British & American folk tunes (Leadbelly was a favourite!) together with songs by artists such as Carolyn Hester & Bob Dylan. Lynn was the main vocalist; Martin played guitar & sang harmonies.

Between 1970 & 1981, Martin was in Rock'n'Roll bands such as the Hot Rod Gang, The Sabrejets (who were signed to Blueport Music & achieved success in several countries) and Diesel & the Firebirds.

In 1991, the area Martin worked in suffered large-scale rioting. During the week of the riots, Lynn suggested that they sing through some of their favourite Rock'n'Roll songs to drive away the 'post-riot blues' and keep their spirits up during that stressful time. This evolved into the duo 'MG & Lynnette', who played many gigs in both the traditional pub/club venues in the North-East of England and venues and many care homes, prison and festivals.

Recordings made at that time are only now being released in 2014, on the 20-track album 'Acoustic Roots of Rock'n'Roll.

Martin has also supported Lynn's solo work on guitar, with her traditional album 'Greenwood Side' (based on her Bo-Weevils repertoire & released in 2007) and her covers album, 'Off-Grid' (released in 2011).



Vintage rocker with a background in community activism as well as music. Bands include the Bo-Weevils (Liverpool, 1960s) the Hot Rod Gang & the Sabrejets (Tyneside, 1970s) the Firebirds, the Kindness of Strangers, duos as MG & Lynnette - now The Border Rebels - and with the singer-songwriter the late Irene Sutherland. 

I ran a music & songwriting group in a prison for 13 years; I play guitar for solo singer Lynn Craig and I'm currently rehearsing for a new music project in the Scottish Borders. Some of my newer songs seem to be getting increasingly political - blame the politicians for that!

Most of what I post here will be solo, live-to-stereo acoustic recordings of my original songs. They're often quite different from other versions I've recorded or played with bands. I hope you like them, many thanks for stopping by...
