Jet Brennan
Scottish singer/guitarist Jet Brennan is a graduate of the school of bars and busking. Uncompromisingly plain but never simple, he delivers a fine tune in a stripped down style.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I tend to take off for Ireland or Scotland and do mini-tours of pubs and bars as the mood takes me. This year I am heading for Devon and Spain or possibly Brittany later in the year.!
I have some good memories, especially of my busking days: touring Ireland on foot (I don't drive) with my trusty Martin and a very inadequate tent. It can really rain in Galway!! Busking in Grafton Street, Dublin on a fine summer's day and all I could see was a sea of moving heads, bobbing along to my music. Great feeling!
