Julian Dawson performs at Hove House Concerts

Julian Dawson

Julian Dawson came armed with one of only 60 Martin 7-string guitars in the world, a pocketful of harmonicas, and a wealth of great songs and stories. Feted in the US and mainland Europe for his distinctive songwriting style and sense of melody, it’s unbelievable that Julian’s not better known in the UK. At least our audience can attest to his charm and talent, whether unaccompanied, tooting on those harmonicas, covering songs by Aretha Franklin or singing his own classics like If I Needed Rain and Uneasy Rider, and everyone had a fine old time.
