Jeffrey Martin has the haunted voice of a world-weary troubadour, who’s carved out a life on the road, shunning life’s normal process and opting instead to prioritise good songs and constant touring.
With a voice that is so resonant yet so withered, it breathes a fantastic new life into lyrics of growing, evolving, and changing.
Joined by Memphis Gerald, an Edinburgh songwriter with a penchant for the more melancholic side of folk, penning tender laments that beautifully incorporate Scottish traditions, the two songwriters provide a night of moving, original music.
Martin’s storytelling is a thing to behold, etching vivid portraits of isolation and pain with ease and an acute sense of accuracy.
