Gaz Brookfield

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BisSASG4eTE Gaz Brookfield is a singer/songwriter from Swindon, but currently residing in Bristol.

His songs are honest and instantly accessible. Played in a folkish style with the occaisional use of the guitar a percussive tool, as well as some very dexterous two handed fret board shenanigans. Add to that the natural charm and humour that he brings to the performance and you have an artist not to be missed.
