Join The John Martyn Project for an evening of reverence to a truly pioneering and unique musical soul.
The six artists that make up the John Martyn project first came together one evening at the Jazz Cafe, Camden in 2018. It was an evening of deep connection, not just to John’s music, but also with a unique community of John Martyn fans.
The sparks of that night became what is now ‘The John Martyn Project’, in which each member of the collective brings their own story and relationship to John’s music, keeping the spirit of his music alive whilst collecting stories and insights from the crowds they play to.
Whether you’re a long time fan or a newcomer to John’s music, expect a revelatory live show in homage to this influential artist.
