n+1 work in progress (each new track is one second longer than the precedent)

Fingerstyle guitarist, banjo botherer & mandolin maniac!

'Mellow, atmospheric and gently played steel string with classical overtones; really nice range and really cool!' - Nitin Sawhney

'..one of my most favourite guitarists I've ever played on the radio' - Adam Walton, BBC

'Love Nik's guitar playing and compositions that always seem to flow like a perfectly executed dance!' - Randal L Meek

RUTH GORDON offers a new poetic twist on contemporary folk, with her own blend of the bizarre, the uncanny, the humorous, and the bittersweet.
 
For several years, Ruth performed, wrote, and recorded with folk group Cakes and Ale. She then joined old-time trio The Ninetree Stumblers, who dredge up long-forgotten songs and raw fiddle tunes from the Old Weird America. You can expect to see glimpses of both of these influences in her live performances.
