Ray Moore

Traditional & Contemporary Folk Singer/Guitarist

'My love of traditional Irish and world contemporary folk music has been driving me over the years, to establish myself as a professional folk musician. I share this desire with a love of the sea and hope one day to mix the two by travelling and living aboard my own sail boat. I hope you enjoy my website, it will be regularly updated to show some intesting features....' Over the years, I've been influenced  by the great Irish sounds of Planxty, Paul Brady, Christie Moore....through to the singer/songwriter giants like James Taylor, Don McLean, John Prine, Gordon Lightfoot and Harry Chapin, to name but a few...                                                    My old boat 'Cocoon' being fitted out at Cowie, Stonehaven. 3 1/2 years of shear bliss! 'I spent three and half happy years between '94 and '98 completely renovating 'Cocoon', a Peterhead built fishing drifter into a tradition gaff rigged cutter. I made my living singing most nights, paradise!  I have since sold her unfortunately and believe she is now in Falmouth.' Click on 'Cocoon' on the Main link left for more details. 'I plan to get myself afloat again in the near future and will post details of my next boat.             My property on Spain's Costa Brava is available for holiday letting all year round.  It's situated on a hilltop, with beautiful views west across rolling hills to the Pyranese mountains.  It consists of a 3 bedroom villa, with a seperate 2 bedroom apartment underneath.  The two can be rented together providing accommodation for up to 10 adults. It is intended in the near future, to make available special holidays mixing folk music and sailing. Click on 'Spain Villa' on the Main link left for more details.
