BSW presents: Eddie Martin at The Bridge Inn, Topsham

London-born Martin was weaned on a folk, electric blues and classic rock soup that left him as at home with acoustic as electric instruments, and imbued him with deep respect for the music’s Afro-American roots.A prolific songwriter since the age of 16, his albums have ranged from One-Man-Band to Big Band to Power-Rock trio as he has wrung every drop of inspiration and instrumental technique out of Blues tradition and pushed it ever outwards with his own writing.Touring 35 countries with 17 acclaimed original albums and a string of National and International Awards and Nominations (including Winner, Best Solo Artist category in 2018 European Blues Awards) he has become known as “The Ambassador of British Blues”.A browse of his work shows a broad sweep across genres from quiet folk to loud slide guitar-led Blues Rock but always with intelligent lyrics and arrangements and top-drawer collaborators. His latest release was the best European Blues Album of 2021 according to MOJO magazine.
