Martin Harley UK Tour 2026

Welsh singer-songwriter and slide guitarist Martin Harley brings his masterful roots music to the Martin Harley UK Tour 2026, an exciting series of performances where his blend of blues, folk, and Americana shines bright. Over more than two decades, Harley has built a reputation as a slide guitar virtuoso, with The Guardian calling his performances “spellbinding” and Roots Magazine hailing him as “a slide guitar master.” His live shows consistently captivate audiences, combining expressive guitar work with soulful vocals.

This tour supports his latest album, Morning Sun, released in October 2024. Produced by Nigel Stonier and featuring contributions from Michael Blair, Mark Lewis, and Chris (CJ) Hillman, the album represents some of Harley’s finest songwriting to date. It continues his journey through richly textured musical landscapes, accessible via major streaming platforms.

Harley’s career highlights include sold-out shows at London’s Union Chapel and appearances at renowned festivals like Glastonbury and the Royal Albert Hall. His music has also found its way into popular culture through placements in television shows such as The Vampire Diaries and Banshee.

Martin Harley shared with fans: “A huge thank you for supporting me. Four shows are sold out and many more are set to do the same. I’m very thankful to be able to play music for a living and I couldn’t do it without you. See you soon.”
