Gerry “Banjo” O’Connor to perform at Shrewsbury Folk Festival 2011

Gerry O'Connor may be the single best four string banjoist in the history of Irish Music.

His phenomenal technique and effortless virtuosity reminds audiences of American five string banjo players like Bela Fleck and Alison Brown.

If ever a musician truly 'owned' the instrument he plays Gerry O'Connor 'owns' the four - string banjo.

A member of Four Men and a Dog, he will be performing with his fantastic trio at Shrewsbury in August.
