About Salmagundi

	Guy Rogers has been performing acoustic music for over 30 years. Originally his interest was captured by the thriving folk scene in the early seventies and he played with a number of outfits at that time, most notably in the Birmingham area. After a move to Leamington Spa he soon became involved in the very active music scene there. Shortly after that, events conspired to bring him to Leicestershire where after a number of forays into Country music, he became involved with the Down County Boys, initially on Mandolin and Vocals then later on Guitar and vocals.

	Dan Norton's interest in music and performing started at the very early age of seven and hasn't stopped since. Born into a very musical family, Dan's father Colin has played and still does play trombone in a brass band and upright bass with a Jazz Big Band. Dan started playing brass band music but quickly turned to guitar. He has done his turn as a bass player in a rock band and then got curious about the Mandolin and came to see the Down County Boys because he'd seen a picture of the band with Guy holding a Mandolin. He quickly became hooked and moved heaven and earth to learn to play it. Very soon he became a member, taking a fast track that only someone with Dan's talent could achieve. He has since played in bands with such notaries as John Dowling. Dan still is a regular member of the Down County Boys.
