On his latest album 'Troubled Horses' singer songwriter Martyn Joseph wanted to create a recording that felt intimate and personal to the listener. Where they are sat alongside him and he's singing and playing these songs about the bad and the beautiful, just for them. Solo performances are what Martyn does best whether that happens at large festivals, music venues or even via YouTube live streaming concerts during COVID (live audiences were in excess of 12K viewers per streamed concert). Martyn believes the very essence of his live shows has been captured here. Martyn Joseph is gifted with the rare ability to speak to the soul with his expressive and poignant lyrics and has a career spanning over 40 years, 27 studio albums, over a half a million record sales and thousands of live performances. Compared to Bruce Springsteen, John Mayer, Bruce Cockburn and Dave Matthews, he has created his own style and reputation as a mesmerising live performer and stands in his own right, built on a reputation for giving what thousands have described as the best live music experience of their lives
