about

With this new (2017) CD album of 14 live tracks, he is re-defining his blues and folk roots in solo, duo and trio formats. Acclaimed as a master flatpicking guitarist, Carnie here delves into his blues roots. The new line ups deliver a driving mix ranging from delta slide blues and Irish slip jigs to powerful acoustic blues and jazzy interpretations of Richard Thompson and Bob Dylan songs. Recent shows include the sold out Edinburgh Festival show "John Carnie and Spider Mackenzie Still Have the Blues" , Stonehaven Folk Festival 2017 with the John Carnie Blues Folk Trio and Edinburgh Festival 2022 with Spider Mackenzie performing the show Tangled Up in the Blues - the blues music of Bib Dylan!
