Welcome to the web site of
Bernard Hoskin,
acoustic roots singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from
Cambridge, England. I am an experienced
performer and live play a mixture of original songs, traditional folk
and covers on 6 and 12 string guitar and mandola. The video above has
short extracts from my new album All Good Things.
There is a diverse range of influences that go to create my distinctive
and original sound which is based upon English songwriting and world
music rhythms as well as the more common folk, country and blues
styles.
I
have released 12 CDs and opened for people such as Bert Jansch, Martin
Carthy, Harvey Andrews, John Renbourn and Jacqui McShee, Clive Gregson,
Phil Beer, Colvin Quarmby, Johnny Dickinson, Pete Atkin, The Oysterband, Josienne Clarke & Ben Walker,
Megson, Gigspanner, Henry Priestman, Greg Russell & Ciaran Algar, Andy Irvine, The Churchfitters, Steve Tilston,
O'Hooley & Tidow. If you are interested in booking me for
your event you can watch videos on the demo page
