Broken Down Suitcase

Broken Down Suitcase are 'A roots inspired folk duo consisting of Ben Caldwell and Eric Larocque which combines haunting harmonies with melodies that immerse you in the dirty depths of musical history'. They hail from Canada (British Colombia), but are currently wandering around Europe with their guitars, banjos and mandolins.

Not sure what twist of fate brought them to a pub in New Cross on Sunday night, but there they were in Skehans in Kitto Road, and very good they were. Played a nice version of Neil Young's Helpless too.
