The Martin Harley Band is an acoustic trio who are achieving cult status with live music fans worldwide. Notorious for their dynamic live shows and relentless gigging, the band is attracting industry scrutiny in 2009. MHB have opened UK and overseas concerts for Brit Award winner James Morrison, made a sensational debut in Italy and nailed two explosive shows on Glastonbury’s famous Acoustic and Avalon stages this summer. Their slide-driven sound, fronted by Acoustic London’s “Solo Performer of the Year 2005”, blends swinging contemporary Americana with heavier acoustic blues-rock and delicate ballads of exceptional beauty. The band has recently been given the rare honour of permission from cult US songwriter Tom Waits to record a version of his song “Chocolate Jesus”.

Love hurts. Love is a many splendoured thing. Love will find a way. Love is all around. Love will tear us apart. Love is the drug. Love don’t live here anymore. Love me tender.
Sooner or later, this happens to everyone. To everyone.
Love gives us the highest highs, the starriest eyes, the deepest sighs… It makes us happier than happy, lifts us up where we belong and makes us believe there ain’t no mountain high enough… But sooner or later, it takes a great chunk out of our hearts and leaves us gasping with pain. Because love bites.
“Love Bites!” is the new anti-rom-com from Rondo Theatre Director Ian McGlynn, which takes a witty, incisive and funny look at all things heart-shaped. Are you ready to be heart-broken?
The play manipulates character flawlessly…An Act of Twisting is full of razor-sharp wit, passionately delivered. Unmissable***** – Venue Magazine on An Act of Twisting
