Mike Fenton
Heather Farrell-Roberts
Mike Fenton – Mike has for many years been the UK's premier performer on the autoharp. As the only UK member of the Autoharp Hall of Fame, he has promoted this instrument more than any other person in the UK for over thirty years. A regular tutor at UKA Days, Mike also offers workshops for children, staff and parents at schools, and his concert performances are a sheer delight. He has many recordings of his music, including "Olde Time Journey" which shows his musical roots, and "The Mountain Laurel Concerts" which is a record of two concerts from 1997 when he was inducted into the Hall of Fame, and 2005 at the Mountain Laurel Autoharp Gathering, Pennsylvania. All are available from his website:
