| 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:
