Martin Harley is a phenomenally talented UK guitarist, singer and songwriter. As well as his solo work, he also plays with the Martin Harley Band, testament to his tireless work ethic and devotion to his craft. A lifelong devotee of acoustic guitar music, especially the ageless blues and roots sounds, he has travelled the globe absorbing a plethora of diverse influences and honing his craft into the classic songwriting style he possesses today.
With such a wealth of experience under his belt, it is no surprise that his life is interwoven with his music, every song telling the tale of a life well lived. As a player he fuses remarkable musicianship with intuition and a deeply-ingrained musical understanding, resulting in songs that are at once world-worn and timeless. Renowned for his prowess as a slide guitarist, he is almost unique in the UK in his playing lap-slide. In all other areas and styles, however, he has proved himself a master guitarist and consistently astounding songwriter.
