James Gavin and Tad Sargent share much common ground,
from Irish roots to Islington’s Holloway Road, and previous
appearances on AWIL, but most of all, their outstanding musicianship.
It was pure joy to watch James Gavin’s finessed fiddle-playing
working in tandem with Tad Sargent’s brilliant bouzouki-guitar in
the studio! James has now embarked on his first solo adventure,
producing a fantastic CD called Chewing the Fat which is scheduled
for release on January 26th. It’s a concept album, centred around
the life & times of his grandmother, Philomena, who lives on a
remote Irish mountain and has plenty to say. Tracks on Chewing the
Fat are equally conversational, taking unexpected twists and turns
through weeping violin and furiously fast Irish reels. Our
conversation during this AWIL was also unpredictable, covering
debates about Folk music from across the British isles to the
worrying loss of yet more grassroots music venues in London. ‘You
want to be fanning the flames rather than worshipping the ashes’.
