They have also appeared on local, national and international radio and TV.

Phil Doleman

Stringed instrument player of 20+ years. Phil is a solo singer/songrwiter/guitarist (see www.phildoleman.co.uk and Phil's MySpace page) and was the banjo player with 4-4-2, who got to number 2 in 2004, appearing on top of the Pops and CD:UK. Initially drawn in by the 'cuteness' of the uke, he quickly realised what a versatile instrument it is and how it doesn't have to be ironic or cute when you play your favourite music on your favourite instrument.
