Mercury Prize nominee 2025 & BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards Lifetime Achievement Award winner performs new album alongside his daughter

Legendary ballad singer and guitarist, Martin Carthy has influenced generations of artists, including Bob Dylan and Paul Simon. So it’s no surprise that he was shortlisted for a 2025 Mercury Music Prize  – one of the most prestigious honours in the industry – for Transform Me Then Into A Fish  a collection of songs also voted one of Songlines’ five Best Albums of 2025.

This album both marked his 84th birthday in May 2025, and offers a full circle moment in his music journey as he revisits material from his very first (eponymous) solo record released in 1965. In Spring 2026 he returns to touring not only with daughter Eliza Carthy, but with the new album, plus an eclectic range of songs and tunes from his vast repertoire, as well as drawing from the traditional canon too.
