E-mail me ([e-mail])and I'll give you the info. for him and his agent. He's in the U.S. every couple of years these days.

For all of you in Oz, Martyn tells me he'll be touring with Eric Bogle (a mind-bogglingly wonderful combination, if you ask me) in Oz for 2-1/2 months starting in March. When I get a website address, I'll post it here. Kathy

Martyn is singing better than ever, and Bill's right about the Graeme Miles songs -- they're wonderful. New CD of all Miles material is due out on the first of May.

I think we may see him in next day or two...(he expressed interest in a guitar Rita owns, and would like to play it again..)..if so, I will ask about schedule and post it....he has a website...www.martynwyndhamread.com , but the schedule posted there has no fine details...only general ones about when he heads for Australia, etc...

Where will he be in between the Boston Singer's Club and the York Maine gig? Like, next weekend? I can't make either of the mid-week venues!

This guy is a "Not to be missed."

..and we had him in Wash DC last night. And he was as wonderful, gracious and silly as ever! If he gets anywhere near you, don't miss the opportunity to hear tall tales, Australian songs, and other songs which, to me, make the point about how songs can be "in the tradition" without being OLD folk. Even curmudgeons can recognize stuff that 'fits'

In this context, Martyn revealed that he has JUST finished recording a CD of all Graeme Miles songs!!...to be released this May or June...he sang 4 or 5 of them for us...wonderful, melodic, moving songs of feeling and life. (When you hear "Smoke Over Belfast", you will understand)

(ask Martyn about the bureaucratic hassles that prevented his tour LAST year!..Makes you wonder ...)
