Cap in Hand
Cap in Hand are Nigel ‘Muddy’ Walters and Dave ‘Fingers’ Spira – a well-seasoned duo who share a common love of the subtle tones and contrasting dynamics of a wide variety of acoustic instruments. They perform regularly at house concerts, folk clubs, and festivals – and particularly enjoy playing to ‘listening’ audiences in intimate venues.
Nigel sings, plays cello mandolin, dulcimer, guitar, harmonica and more….and is well known to Australian music lovers through his work over more than a decade with the iconic Wheeze and Suck Band (subsequently reincarnated as Traditional Graffiti).
Dave plays finger style acoustic guitar in a range of different tunings and has a growing online audience through his YouTube channel. Dave Spira’s guitar solos – YouTube
