Artist
Damien Barber is an English folk singer who sings unaccompanied or alongside his guitar or English concertina. He formed The Demon Barbers (Peter Bellamy’s affectionate nickname for him) at the end of the 1990s. He also records as Damien Barber & Mike Wilson and as Damien & The Omen. Influenced by such earlier singers as Peter Bellamy and Walter Pardon from his native Norfolk, he heard many of the great English revival singers like Nic Jones, Dick Gaughan and Martin Carthy at his local folk club. There, he began to absorb the styles and sounds of local singers such as Tony Hall and Peter Bellamy and he was fortunate to listen to, and to play with Walter Pardon, one of the last great traditional singers of the region, at his home before he died in 1996. Barber is well-known for his collaboration with Mike Wilson (as Damien Barber & Mike Wilson ). They share a rich repertoire of traditional songs from around England. Barber formed The Demon Barbers (Peter Bellamy’s affectionate nickname for him) at the end of the 1990s. He formed the four-piece band Damien & The Omen in 2020.
