Rupert ‘Ramblin’ Rags’ Lovell is an
established guitarist on the Kent music
scene. He specialises in solo fingerstyle
arrangements played on an amplified
nylon string ‘classical’ guitar. Rupert’s
repertoire is wide-ranging including
rags, jazz and blues as well as many
original compositions, all performed
with his trademark ‘cool acoustic’ vibe.
Over the last few years Rupert has
appeared at many pub and restaurant
music venues in Kent and is a regular at
local festivals, including Milk Fest.
F I R S T C D / C A S S E T T E TA P E / Bob Marley, Kaya (LP on vinyl). I saw
him play live at Crystal Palace a few years before he sadly passed. Total hero.
A L L - T I M E I D O L / Tommy Emmanuel, though I’d be too in awe to play
with him if I actually had the chance.
S TA R M O M E N T / Playing at Milk Fest, of course – it’s definitely the
biggest event I’ve ever been part of and the vibe is just the best!
P E T N A M E F O R G U I TA R / I call it Yamaha NTX1200R electro-
classical guitar (rolls off the tongue).
F O N D E S T F L A S H B A C K / Performing in a pub a few years ago
where I overheard a large and extremely drunk group of medics saying, ‘He’s
good, but he’s no Bon Jovi’. I could only agree and I’m sure the same still applies.
