ALBUM REVIEWS
"Pete and Jen combine the best of their Folk and Blues influences on this excellent collection of classic songs.
The feel of the album is consistent and very listenable.
I would highly recommend The Harp Unstrung as a love letter to the folk/blues pioneers, but with enough originality in the arrangements to make it their own.
Tim Lee
"Brill album!"
Susan Guest

TESTIMONIALS
"Pete Latham and Jen Ogle appeared recently at The Hayes in Stone in support of The Extra Guest charity’s annual ‘Food for All’ gig.
Their superb acoustic folk selection got the evening off to a great start and the performance (interspersed with Pete’s acerbic political commentaries!) received loud and enthusiastic applause.
Many thanks to these two hugely talented local musicians - we all love Pete’s amazing ‘finger-picking’ guitar playing and Jen’s beautiful voice".

"Having taken photos for Pete & Jen's Acoustic Duo, I was impressed with their unique sound in comparison to a lot of other local acts. They bring something different and charming to an event which gets peoples attention and makes you feel relaxed and at ease with the world.
I would highly recommend them for any venue as they will give you something interesting to listen to and share with friends and customers".
