This diversity of different musical paths of the musicians recreate the many different aspects and eras of Martyn's music and is delivered in a sensitive and poignant manner.

In the wake of a special one off, sold out show in 2018 at the Camden Jazz Cafe, the group decided to take the project on tour and the warm reception its received has inspired them to continue. Since then they have regularly toured the UK and mainland Europe as well as bringing John's music back to the festival circuit. Each tour they continue to introduce more of John's back catalogue from obscure live recordings to classic favourites reworked and presented with rich harmonies and diverse instrumentation.
