About
This six-piece tribute act treats the works of British singer-songwriter John Martyn with poignant sensitivity, exploring now only the songs from his 1970s purple patch, but much of his lesser-known works too. Join them for a memorable evening as their show launches Bradford on Avon's annual Green Man festival.
The Green Man Festival launch:
Arrive early to enjoy a bite to eat and see the Green Man team bring the bar alive with decorations and dancing including an appearance by The Ganderflankers, The Green Man Festival band.
The Bradford on Avon Green Man Festival is an annual event which sees hundreds of folk dancers from all over the country come to town. This year's event takes place on Saturday 10th May 2025 in the town centre
More about this project:
Six artists come together to celebrate the music of John Martyn, each bringing their own story and connection to John's music which adds to the fabric of the overall experience of the project.
This diversity of different musical paths of the musicians recreate the many different aspects and eras of Martyn's music and is delivered in a sensitive and poignant manner.
In the wake of a special one-off, sold-out show in 2018 at the Camden Jazz Cafe, the group decided to take the project on tour and the warm reception its received has inspired them to continue. Since then they have regularly toured the UK and mainland Europe as well as bringing John's music back to the festival circuit. Each tour they continue to introduce more of John's back catalogue from obscure live recordings to classic favourites reworked and presented with rich harmonies and diverse instrumentation.
