Maybe it's something in the West Riding air or water, but we do seem blessed at the moment with some prodigious talent in the folk world, as John Sharp, QFolks promoter, continues to demonstrate. Jonathan Taylor, Warwick born but these days very much a Halifax lad, is a rare talent indeed. Not only is he the possessor of a marvellously dusty, dusky voice full of resonance and beauty, which invites comparison with Neil Young in vocal colour if not in style, but he writes some awe-inspiring songs, both lyrics and melody. His partner, Shipley based Steve Wilkinson is a poet of the Northern Voice School, refreshing in his use of conventional metrical patterns and rhyme schemes, whose pithily worded poems often take the form of dramatic monologues or dialogues. Together, they launched into an 'anti war pro soldier' tirade, beginning with The Great War and coming right up to date with that in Iraq. Jonathan's Soldier, Soldier, Don't Look Back was deeply moving, and perfectly complimented by Steve's heart felt tribute to Shipley born Sgt Steven Roberts, the first British soldier to die in the 2003 invasion of Iraq. In a varied second half, Jonathan turned romantic and sang some beautiful songs, including his own tear jerker 'Please Close The Door Quietly,' the iconic 'I Put A Spell On You' and, would you believe, a profound version of 'Dolly Parton's Jolene.' And Steve gave the world premier of his satirical take on the eccentric Greek philosopher, Diogenes.

As featured on international TV and radio, Jonathan Taylor is an award-winning (Akademia) British singer/songwriter. As a student with Sp.LD (Acquired brain injury / Dyslexia), he was also awarded the Principal's Award for ‘Outstanding Achievement in Education’ during his studies (Youth & Community Work) whilst at Bradford & Ilkley Community College (Bradford University). Placed in a 'special Unit' he’d left school without having been entered for any formal secondary examinations. He later (oh, the irony of it) entered teaching with a P.G.C.E (Huddersfield University). Today; he specialises (Leeds Beckett University) in mentoring and adult education. His favourite film would probably be 'Inglorious B*stards' and of books - 'Animal Farm.' In his own words Jonathan says: ‘’Thanks for checking out Brittunculi, my humble little self-publishing outlet. I have a passion for cutting-edge storytelling, especially those with a dark undercurrent that other authors are reluctant to touch, I love a good cliché-free twist. My works are mostly born of my passion for historical fiction – plots that draw my readers in. I always incorporate humour: for both entertainment and escape, I’m sure you will feel thrilled with both laughter and the human darkness that can lurk unexpectedly between my covers. I sincerely thank you for your support of unsigned writers, I’d be delighted to hear from you’’. https://www.lulu.com/spotlight/brittunculi
