Peter Narvaez (fingerstyle guitar, vocalist, harmonica) who originally recorded with John Fahey’s legendary Takoma label in the 1960s, has entertained Newfoundland, Labrador and Atlantic Canadian audiences with his performances of downhome acoustic blues, ragtime, and original songs for over thirty-five years.
