A hippy Viking and his charming ear-worms
It’s not surprising he’s a live attraction - tall, red-haired, and sporting a long plaited beard, he cuts a striking figure, and for guitar aficionados and ‘civilians’ alike his playing will be just as impactful.

Hide AdWith wide musical interests and more than 30 years of exploring the guitar and composition as a self-taught musician, Richard draws his experiences and his influences together to form his punchy, expressive, and ‘mesmerising’ playing style.
Richard’s debut solo album ‘River’, a concept album, explores the river from source to sea through his swirling, lyrical and often playful guitar.
Capener genuinely captures the feeling of a summer afternoon with water trickling by.
