THE CRY OF TIN - The Players
- Jon Heslop became well known
during the miners strike of 1984 through his song Old
Soldiers.
- Mike O'Connor is a well known
fiddle-player, accompanist and story-teller, and a writer
of powerful songs.
- Miranda Truscott is the
youngest of the group, having started songwriting at the
age of 13. Miranda performs regularly with her parents
and increasingly as a soloist.
- Tony Franklin, ex Jinks'
Stack, singer and multi-instrumentalist
- Tony Truscott is a versatile
singer, songwriter and poet. Tony wrote The Lamb and Flag
mass, broadcast on Radio Cornwall.
- John Wallace, singer and
guitarist, has been writing and
performing good music since the 60's
- Roger Bryant the man who wrote
Cornish Lads, (he tunnelled out of the picture above).
- Pete Berryman: dynamic folk
/jazz/blues guitarist & singer/songwriter. Sadly Pete has not been able to attend
recent performances. Pete's hands were badly injured
after an attack by guard dogs. Pete is now teaching
guitar again, but is only slowly regaining the ability to
achieve his wonderful dexterity without considerable
pain. So Pete is accepting a smaller number of gigs than
he would like - we all hope he achieves a full and speedy
recovery.
