SUMMARY:Martin Carthy
DESCRIPTION:Love Thy Neighbour presents: Martin Carthy (seated show)\n\nTic
 kets £20adv / £25otd (if still available)  www.seetickets.com/event/mar
 tin-carthy/lewes-con-club/3180584\n\nBar from 5:00pm. Doors 7.30pm - 10.30
 pm\n\nFor more than 50 years Martin Carthy has been one of folk music's gr
 eatest innovators\, one of its best loved\, most enthusiastic and\, at tim
 es\, most quietly controversial of figures. His skill\, stage presence and
  natural charm have won him many admirers\, not only from within the folk 
 scene\, but also far beyond it.\n\nTrailblazing musical partnerships with\
 , amongst others\, Steeleye Span\, Dave Swarbrick and his award-winning wi
 fe (Norma Waterson) and daughter Eliza Carthy have resulted in more than 4
 0 albums\, but Martin has only recorded 10 solo albums\, of which the much
  anticipated Waiting for Angels (Topic TSCD527) was the latest. Whether in
  the folk clubs (which he continues to champion)\, on the concert stage or
  making TV appearances (he was the subject of the acclaimed `Originals' mu
 sic documentary strand on BBC 2) - there are few roles that Martin Carthy 
 hasn't played.\n\nHe's a ballad singer\, a ground-breaking acoustic and el
 ectric-guitarist and an authoritative interpreter of newly composed materi
 al. He always prefers to follow an insatiable musical curiosity rather tha
 n cash in on his unrivalled position. Perhaps\, most significant of all\, 
 are his settings of traditional songs with guitar\, which have influenced 
 a generation of artists\, including Bob Dylan and Paul Simon\, on both sid
 es of the Atlantic.\n\n`Arguably the greatest English folk song performer\
 , writer\, collector and editor of them all' Q Magazine\n\n‘Carthy is a 
 master of the ballad of substance\, songs that tell stories\, whether they
  are traditional\, his own or from contemporary writers.’ The Telegraph
