Many of Forest Tracks' artists have Websites/MySpace pages.
Check them out for news and forthcoming gigs.
The artists profiled below either don't have personal web presence or have news of local concerts etc, that would be of interest :
GEOFF JERRAM: has been a member of Winchester Morris Men for over thirty five years, during which time he has become a nationally recognised and highly respected dancer, musician and teacher, running occasional instructionals for The Morris Ring.
Geoff is also a fine singer and noted for his interpretations of local traditional songs.
