Grammy nominated musician Martin Taylor (pictured above) is a virtuoso guitarist, composer and musical innovator, whom Acoustic Guitar Magazine calls, “THE Acoustic Guitarist of his Generation”.
Widely considered to be the world’s foremost exponent of solo jazz and fingerstyle guitar playing, Martin possesses an inimitable style that has earned him global acclaim from fellow musicians, fans and critics alike and he is set to appear at The Apex, in Bury St Edmunds, next week.
In 2026, Martin Taylor returns to the stage with his brand-new solo show, “Standards”, celebrating the golden age of jazz through fresh and evocative arrangements of classic tunes from the Great American Songbook.
Audiences can expect an evening of breathtaking musicianship, rich harmonies, and stories that transport you behind the music – from smoky jazz clubs to concert halls around the world.
Renowned internationally for his warm stage presence, dazzling technique and unforgettable interpretations, Martin has enjoyed a remarkable career spanning six decades, including collaborations with Stéphane Grappelli, Tommy Emmanuel, Chet Atkins, and many of the world’s greatest jazz musicians.
He is at The Apex in Bury St Edmunds on Tuesday, October 6, at 7.30pm.
