Martin Carthy

Martin Carthy has undeniably etched his name into the annals of music history. Martin explores his formative years, tracing his musical influences and unraveling the bonds he forged with Bob Dylan and Paul Simon. During Bob Dylan’s pivotal trip to London in 1962, Carthy’s rendition of Lord Franklin ignited Dylan’s creative spark, resulting in Bob Dylan’s Dream. Moreover, Martin’s rendition of Scarborough Fair served as a wellspring of inspiration for both Dylan, leading to the creation of Girl from the North Country and Simon & Garfunkel, who interwove it with Canticle. Carthy shares his approach to reinvigorating traditional songs, shedding light on key moments from his music and collaborations.
