About the Event
"Wow, Martin Kerr, what a voice! Pristine, measured and beautiful." - Sarah McLachlan
Often compared to James Taylor and John Denver, and more recently Ed Sheeran, Martin Kerr's voice and songwriting touches hearts of all ages and backgrounds. His captivating live performance is an emotional journey of heartfelt stories lit up by his trademark British wit. You'll laugh out loud about the internet stalker who became his wife, weep for the Chinese farmer whose story is told in the song 'Mr. Liao' and finally sing 'You're Amazing!' to complete strangers at the top of your voice.
In a few short years Martin has gone from busking on street corners to selling out major theatres, playing huge festivals and landing his album in the Canadian Top 10, all as an independent artist. Now signed with Nettwerk Records, he’s about to go global. Come see what all the fuss is about.
