Bennett

Bennett Hammond plays guitar, mostly, picking and singing all kinds of stuff, old and new, in the folk-and-acoustic realm: folk songs, country blues, traditional tunes from here and there. Or he makes it up himself. Since 1986 Bennett has been working and performing, traveling and teaching with his wife and partner Lorraine Lee Hammond.
