Martin Harley Band plus special guest Kola May 3, 2012

Fresh home from a trip to the US to unearth the true roots of blues, acclaimed slide guitarist and singer Martin Harley and his band return across the Atlantic with a rich cargo of new music to disembark at Band on the Wall as part of a UK tour.

Indeed Martin’s hunger to explore the world's music has seen him travel all over the globe. He lived in a car for a year in Australia while developing his slide guitar technique; learnt self-discipline by living in a monastery in Thailand and rode an old Enfield motorbike across Nepal, where he learnt about their traditional music. In Mali he got the chance to learn from some of their great musicians such as Bassekou Kouyate and Vieux Farka Touré, son of the world—famous Ali Farka Touré.
