Mick Bailey Guitar, Vocals, is the founder and lynch-pin of the band Wraggle Taggle which he put together following many succesful years organising sessions and gigs in and around his home in North London. He carefully selected the band members for outstanding talent on their individual instruments and as a bunch of good friends. Born in Yorkshire in 1954, Mick trained as a classical pianist and taught himself the guitar. He was always interested in folk music and helped run Knebworth Folk Club in Hertfordshire when he was just a teenager. He was turned on to Irish music during the seventies "revival" by groundbreaking bands such as Planxty, The Bothy Band, and The Chieftans. Mick has worked in a variety of musical areas, composing and arranging for theatre as well as jazz, rock and folk groups. Previous projects include "The Tollpuddle Players", "Take Two", "Yellow Bell"and "Northern Celts".
