H is skill\, stage presence and natural charm have won him many admirers\, n ot only from within the folk scene\, but also far beyond it.\n\nTrailblazi ng musical partnerships with\, amongst others\, Steeleye Span\, Dave Swarb rick and his award-winning wife (Norma Waterson) and daughter Eliza Carthy have resulted in more than 40 albums\, but Martin has only recorded 10 so lo albums\, of which the much anticipated Waiting for Angels (Topic TSCD52 7) was the latest. Whether in the folk clubs (which he continues to champi on)\, on the concert stage or making TV appearances (he was the subject of the acclaimed `Originals’ music documentary strand on BBC 2) – there are few roles that Martin Carthy hasn’t played.\n\nHe’s a ballad singe r\, a ground-breaking acoustic and electric-guitarist and an authoritative interpreter of newly composed material. He always prefers to follow an in satiable musical curiosity rather than 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 B ob Dylan and Paul Simon\, on both sides of the Atlantic.\n\n`Arguably the greatest English folk song performer\, writer\, collector and editor of th em 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 ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.lewesconclub.com/wp-content/uploads/ 2021/08/MCarthy2022.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:Europe/London X-LIC-LOCATION:Europe/London BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20220327T020000 TZOFFSETFROM:+0000 TZOFFSETTO:+0100 TZNAME:BST END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
