Ron Trueman-Border
Reviews | Gigs | Recordings
Nottingham born Ron spent his formative years in Chislehurst and has never lived far from South East London. He now lives in Sidcup and regularly plays the club and pub circuit in Kent and around London. Ron's performed at some of the UK's most prestigious festivals in the last few years - including Broadstairs and Guernsey.
Ron's music encompasses blues, jazz and folk - delivered in an individual and entertaining style. He's a talented guitarist and a prolific songwriter - as a running tap is to water, so is Ron to songs.
Reviews
"Ron writes and sings with enormous depth and feeling. While listening, you might think Dylan? Springsteen? Clapton? - but the songs are most definitely Ron Trueman-Border!"
"He is a performer who never seems to lack inspiration and his invention never flags."
"The most important singer-songwriter to emerge in Kent - one of this country's most innovative songsmiths."
