Bella Gaffney

Sunday evening was spent watching the wonderful Bella Gaffney and Kate Griffin Music play a sublime selection of Americana themed music at Temperance. Opening the evening Kate, of Mishra and Magpies fame delighted the audience with some intriguing Banjo and Guitar including innovative use of a foot operated Bass Synth - unusual, but very pleasant sound. Bella then played 2 sets of intricate Banjo and Guitar interspersed by her endearing Yorkshire humour. Kate joined her for some magical collaborations to finish off the evening for a friendly and enthusiastic crowd.

Bella was once again a brilliant singer, banjo and guitar player, joke teller and entertainer. A must see whenever in town. Folk music without getting dull or morbid. What's there not to like. Thank you Bella. And the venue is very intimate and weird for a gig. Well worth it.

Bella is a very talented singer, songwriter, guitar and banjo player. She's a brilliant musician, has a very powerful yet soulful voice and a wonderful personality. I enjoy seeing her as a solo artist and also in The Magpies. One of the things I love about her is her sense of humour, which she uses to the max whilst ad libbing between songs.

Brilliant gig. But it was Bella. All audience very appreciative of the singing, guitar and banjo playing, and the intra song banter.
