Tom Martin - Acoustic Roots/Celtic Soul

On the afternoon of Sunday 12th July we welcome Irish singer songwriter Tom Martin to JJJ.Tom has carved out a musical niche perhaps best described as "Celtic Fusion" in that he seems to effortlessly infuse whatever genre he tackles with the elusive but unmistakable muse that is found only among the musicians, mystics and poets of Ireland.A consummate performer who has honed his craft for more than forty years, in venues ranging from bars to concert halls and festival stages, Tom's songwriting and musical arrangements have been compared to Paul Simon, John Prine, Bob Dylan, and Ry Cooder.

He counts all of these luminaries among his musical influences, along with the Rolling Stones, Bert Jansch, Chuck Berry, Hank Williams, Robert Johnson, Doc Watson, and the traditional music of his native Ireland.

But the songs, the style and the delivery are very much his own.Ticket: FREE EntryAccessibility:Access to Joe Joe Jims via the front doors is on the level with the frontage and footpath without the need to negotiate any steps or changes in surface height.Within the venue we have a raised disabled guest area accessible via ramp and should you need to use this facility, please notify us in advance on 0121 453 3103 and make yourself known to our staff upon your arrival so that we can provide any assistance you may require.
