  • Description

    What can be said about such an awesome guitar collective as Martins 4? The finest exponent of traditional English folk music, Martin Carthy's distinctive and influential style over a 40-year career has earnt him worldwide respect, affection and recognition. Andalucian Juan Martin has toured the world many times giving extraordinary performances and master classes in flamenco with an electrifying and smouldering intensity. Meanwhile, described as 'the essential connection between Mississippi slide guitar and the English ballad', Martin Simpson has the rare gift of skilfully augmenting simple songs with both subtlety and astonishing fretboard harmonics. Martin Taylor first came to prominence in the 70's and has since established himself internationally as one of the world's finest jazz guitarists, winning every award going. The members of this extraordinary ensemble offer an inviting, accessible and rare blend of traditional folk, blues, flamenco and jazz.
