A Tribute to John Martyn- Full time Sinner, Part Time Saint
Sarah-Jane Morris is Britain’s most influential jazz and R&B singer. Morris’s magnificent soul voice and emotional power has garnered praise and admiration worldwide for over 30 years. Inspired by the unwavering belief in the power of song to change hearts and minds, Sarah Jane has always followed her own star. That independence has brought her a loyal audience, devoted to her feisty, independent musical style.
John Martyn was a sublime genius, and an innovative musical talent who produced a canon of music that is both breathtakingly bold and achingly tender in its complex, atmospheric beauty. In Sweet Little Mystery Morris shines a light on this great musical maverick, illuminating his life's work, in her inspirational new show.
“A voice that can excite shivers of passion and delight. Soaring, swooping, sensual and sophisticated, this voice is more than a style, it’s a force of nature...Torch song, soul standard or smoky blues, the message remains constant: human passion with a dazzling voice.” The Observer
"Sarah Jane Morris could hum a contacts list and still dazzle." The Standard
"A singer who sings as if she really means it." London Jazz News
