(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2010-05-30

Tom Eno is a British musician and recording artist working with the very cool Jack To Phono label from London. Tom's distinctive style blending classical Spanish and jazz guitar draws inspiration from jazz masters such as Charlie Byrd and Django Reinhardt, and classical guitarists and composers such as Segovia and Villa-Lobos. His amazing album Barnstormer is something quite unique, between Beck and Kings of Convenience, with fantastic acoustics drummings and strings arrangements... Here's a taster especially cooked by Tom Eno himself for Paris Djs!
