Martyn Joseph

Martyn Joseph is a performer like no other. Shades of Springsteen, Knopfler and Dave Mathews there may be – but he stands in his own right, built on a reputation for giving what thousands have described as the best live music experience of their lives.
One of acoustic music’s most arresting artists, the Welsh singer songwriter has been in demand on both sides of the Atlantic for over two decades. Martyn’s 25 year career has embraced some notable achievements including 5 Top 50 UK chart positions with songs such as “Working Mother”, “Dolphins Make Me Cry” and “Let’s Talk about It In The Morning,” and appearances and tours with, amongst others, Suzanne Vega, Marc Cohn, Joan Armatrading, Runrig, Clannad, Chris de Burgh, Art Garfunkel, Jools Holland and even Celine Dion and Shirley Bassey. He has won fans everywhere with his uncanny fusion of material – feisty, pulls no punches big issue numbers alongside stripped bare love songs.
Across a 25-year career, and having released his 30th. album Evolved in October 2008, Martyn’s song catalogue is an awesomely impressive archive of our times. Always charming, sometime alarming, Martyn Jospeph is a unique songwriter who digs deep and delivers an ultimate life affirming message. One of the most unusual and compelling performers you are likely to encounter.
"Joseph proves that the path to integrity is a celebration not a chore. An artist of enduring worth." – MoJo
