Senie Hunt Senie Hunt Memphis Senie Hunt is a self-taught, singer-songwriter and percussive guitarist based in Memphis, Tennessee. Adopted from Sierra Leone at age 5 during the brutal Diamond Wars, Senie brought with him an inherent passion for West African rhythms and percussion. As a young boy, Senie and his twin sister used djembe drumming as a creative outlet to process the traumas of their early childhood. With the help of his adoptive father, an amateur guitarist, Senie began to play the guitar at the age of 7. He learned most of what he knows through watching footage of live concerts of early influencers, especially Stevie Ray Vaughan, B.B. King, Eric Clapton and The Allman Brothers. As he learned guitar, Senie’s rhythmic instincts led him to experiment with drumming on the guitar as a way to capture the sound and rhythms of his West African roots. Senie’s playing is eclectic, powerful and artfully unique. This original approach and performance style, especially his unique percussion, sets Senie apart from other acoustic guitarists. Senie composes continuously and has a large body of work for one so young. In 2020, he was awarded the Innovators award at the Granite State of Mind Music Awards for his guitar mastery, and unique compositions. His spotlight includes opening up for artists such as the legendary Richard Thompson, The Levin Brothers, Brooks Young, Daby Touré and Robert Randolph. Senie released his studio EP ‘Song Bird' in 2019 and just released his Christmas EP ‘Winter Meadow’ in 2020. Senie Hunt’s tracks Concerning Hobbits (feat.
