Jon Stravers and Big Blue Sky Band
Their musical style includes the influence of folk, bluegrass, blues and reggae.  Through their art they seek a closer connection to the planet, and indeed their musical writing comes from the inspiration of wild places and a celebration of our natural heritage and the natural rhythms of life.
