_(General Admission)_MARTIN BARRE / DAN CALL
**********************
MARTIN BARRE
Martin Barre has been the guitarist of Jethro Tull for 43 years, his
sound and playing having been a major factor in their success. Album
sales have exceeded 60 million units and they continue to be played
worldwide, representing an important part of classic rock history.
Martin’s guitar playing has earned him a high level of respect and
recognition; he was voted 25th best solo ever in the USA and 20th best
solo ever in the UK for his playing on 'Aqualung'. His
playing on the album ‘Crest of a Knave’ earned him a Grammy award
in 1988. As well as numerous Jethro Tull albums, Martin has worked
with many other artists including Paul McCartney, Phil Collins, Gary
Moore, Jo Bonamassa and Chris Thompson and has shared a stage with
such legends as Hendrix, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin.
As Jethro Tull are taking a long break from touring, Martin has
put together a band to play the "classic" music from
the Tull catalogue. His band is a total commitment to give the Tull
fans and a broader audience the chance to hear tracks not performed
for many years. The band includes top musicians from a similar
background.
DAN CALL
After three Billboard Adult Contemporary Top 20 Singles and four
critically acclaimed albums with his band The Villains, Dan Call is
set to release his highly anticipated debut solo record Intoxicating
this February 2020. From the title track single to the hypnotic Light
Up The Night, Intoxicating is a five song pop/rock/dance celebration
reflecting today’s contemporary vibe, without forgetting all the
classic sounds and styles that got us here. A departure from the adult
contemporary rock sound of The Villains, Intoxicating finds Dan
experimenting and stretching out with different sounds, styles, and
atmosphere that results is a unique sound and statement of our times.
A blend of well crafted songs, big hooks, and relatable lyrics that,
on its surface, is tough, sexy, ass shaking, and undeniable. But dig
down a little further. On multiple listens, you will find it is
provocative, emotional, visual…an arena sized rallying cry straight
from the soul of Dan himself. Aching to connect, include, and
reassure, Intoxicating is a much needed pop culture breath of fresh
air and truly a work that stands on its own. Ultimately, its a career
defining, musical kick in the ass that will stay with you long after
the record has stopped playing. As a Round Hill Music songwriter, Dan
has had the pleasure of working with A- list writers such as Stan
Lynch (Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, Don Henley, The Eagles), Peter
Stroud (Sheryl Crow, Sarah McLachlan), Richard Feldman (Eric Clapton,
Joe Cocker), Billy Chapin (Edwin McCain), Josh Leo (Lynyrd Skynyrd,
Alabama), James House (Dwight Yoakum, Martina McBride), Charlie
Midnight (Katie Perry, James Brown, Hilary Duff) and many others. His
songs have been featured on Lifetime Network, TV Guide Channel, E!
Channel, NASCAR, and many others. As a bass player and musician, Dan
has toured the world with many artists and bands in rock and country
over the years. He has also recorded with producers such as Stan
Lynch, Brent Maher, and Butch Walker just to name a few.
