Midnight Mango presents at the Exeter Phoenix on Saturday 30th March 2013 in support of this new album Mojo Fix. Martin Harley Band, plus Marc O’Reilly.
Martin Harley is a phenomenally talented guitarist, singer and songwriter he fronts the highly praised UK-based acoustic trio, The Martin Harley Band. He will be touring his new Album MOJO FIX this coming March 2013.
With four critically celebrated albums released in the UK and Europe and a new solo album recorded in Texas and releasing October 2012, features for Guitarist Magazine, the BBC, countless European festival features and world press, Martin has a strong and solid base of fans spanning the globe. His love of surfing and travel have taken him all over the world from Australia to stints playing with some of Africa’s finest popular musicians.
Renowned for his prowess as a slide guitarist, he is almost unique in the UK in his playing lap slide. In other areas and styles, however, he has proved himself a master guitarist and a consistently astounding songwriter. Look for Martin’s videos “Winter Coat” and “Love In the Afternoon”, and a live version of the forthcoming single “Mojo Fix” from the new album of the same name.
Marc O’Reilly’s sound is inspired folk ‘n’ blues with African percussive rhythms. It’s right there between old American folk-blues & The Black keys ~ Andy McKee & Tom Waits. As a live performer he already has an intense and spellbinding reputation, as a songwriter he stands out as unique and moving talent and as a voice he is both urgent and persuasive in the same breath. At the end of it all Marc is a contender.
Saturday Doors are at 8pm, standing room only. Tickets are £12.50 in advance and are available from the Phoenix Box Office on 01392 667080 or online at http://www.exeterphoenix.org.uk.
