The 2012 Festival’s performers:
Les Fabuleux Blousy Bone Shakers
Those who created the BSA France Festival de Cigar Box Guitares presented the festival, made Cigar Box Guitars demonstrations and held events through the day…

The Slim Panatellas & Hamish Roberts
The Slim Panatellas come from Scotland.
On the road from Inverness to WOMEX 2012 in Thessalonique, Greece, they stopped in Boissy-Sans-Avoir in order to perform at the Festival.
For this European tour, the Slim Panatellas (Don/Cigar Box Guitar and Rob/Tea Chest Bass) were accompanied by their “extra” Slim Panatellas, Hamish Robert.

Nigel McTrustry
Nigel is a blues man who comes from Brisbane/Australia.
Excellent song-writer and performer, Nigel plays on Cigar Box Guitars he made himself, which ensure exceptional sounds.
During more than one hour, the Brickfielder blew on the stage of the BSA CBG Festival 2012…

Leadfoot T
Steve (CBG – Foot Stompin Drum) and Fast Fingers Kevin (Bass) come from Kent.
The sound of Leadfoot is distinctly Rock with a big touch of Delta Blues…

James
James, who is one of the most active member of Cigar Box Nation, created the sound scapes.
Regardless of the distance between them, James and the FFBS together composed the sound track of the beginning of the 2012 Festival: Gallics on Salt.

Delbarjo
Presentation of Delbarjo’s videos …
Delbarjo is an all-round artist. He makes a lot of videos about each of his pieces of music…
