Named after a semi-mythological plant described in 16th century travellers' tales, 'The Borametz Tree' is the first album from C Joynes and the Furlong Bray, a project led by guitarist C Joynes, which features members of experimental folk ensemble Dead Rat Orchestra, plus electroacoustic composer Cam Deas and fellow guitarist and multi-instrumentalist Nick Jonah Davis. C Joynes is a guitarist based in Cambridge. His music incorporates English folk tunes alongside North and West African music, with protominimalist and improvised techniques lifted from the European classical tradition. He has released seven albums to date, including 'Split Electric' (Thread Recordings, 2016), a split album of solo electric guitar recordings with Nick Jonah Davis, and 'The Wild Wild Berry' (Bo'Weavil Recordings, 2012), a collaboration with folk singer Stephanie Hladowski.
