In addition to Jethro Tull, Martin has worked with top artists like Paul McCartney, Phil Collins, Gary Moore, and Chris Thompson and has shared the stage with legends like Jimmy Hendrix, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin. For this special intimate show at The Spire, Martin has put together a stellar, full band to play the classic music from the Jethro Tull catalogue in order to give the audience a chance to hear the hits and songs that have not been performed for many years.

djournal.com/lifestyle/jethro-tull-guitarist-to-play-tupelo/Jethro Tull guitarist to play Tupelo Posted on November 19, 2015 by W. Derek Russell in Entertainment, Lifestyle Share on facebook Share on twitter Share on email More Sharing Services Jethro Tull guitarist Martin Barre has been touring across the globe for nearly 45 years, most recently with The Martin Barre Band which hits Tupelo’s Blue Canoe next Wednesday night. (Courtesy) Jethro Tull guitarist Martin Barre has been touring across the globe for nearly 45 years, most recently with The Martin Barre Band which hits Tupelo’s Blue Canoe next Wednesday night. (Courtesy) By W. Derek Russell Daily Journal TUPELO – Martin Barre feels perfectly at home on stage. Why shouldn’t he? The former Jethro Tull guitarist has been touring for nearly 45 years throughout the world. For the past four years, Barre has been touring with his own band – aptly named The Martin Barre Band – and next week, he’s headed for Tupelo. “I’m Mississippi-local,” Barre laughed in an interview with the Daily Journal. “My wife is from Brandon and my son lives in Canton, so I’m familiar with the whole Mississippi-thing. I love it.” The Birmingham, England-born musician has made a career out of his music – joining Jethro Tull before their 1969 album, “Stand Up.” After all these years, Barre said it’s still a whole new world touring in 2015. “It’s my world, now,” he said. “I know America really well and I know travel really well. I’ve learned over the years what to do and what not to do, but essentially, I love playing live. And it’s a really great pleasure to tour, especially in America.” Barre’s third album with his band, “Back to Steel,” is important to him because of his love for the original tunes he’s written. “We started playing mostly old (Jethro) Tull material,” he said, “and when we started doing that I went back to the really early Tull that hasn’t been played in a long time. We sort of reassessed it, rearranged it and made them a bit more blues-y and more rock-y. So we’ve got sort of a framework of classic Tull and then we’ve added to these sets with all this original material. I want to have a band that plays a lot of original material, so it was important to write this album with playing it live in mind. It’s really vital.” Barre said there’s a perception of what to expect from one of his shows after playing with a legendary band for so long. “I think I’m fighting with what people would perceive to be what most people in my position would do, and that would be playing Jethro Tull songs but with no flute player there,” he said. “And that’s exactly the opposite of what I’m doing. This a very fresh, energetic approach to playing Tull music when I do those songs, but it has more to do with the guitar side of it than the flute side. And it’s also a really serious show; it’s not a sort of throw away solo tour with me and a bunch of my mates. It’s not half-hearted at all. It’s a very serious attempt to establish myself all over again. Classic Tull fans won’t be disappointed, I’m very confident of that.” Catch The Martin Barre Band when they perform at the Blue Canoe on Wednesday, Nov. 25.
