Fair warning...the place billed as a comedy venue might overstimulate Mr.Barre who gets funnier every tour. This is NOT a complaint !

www.caledonianrecord.com/features/entertainment/roads-less-traveled-with-jethro-tull-s-martin-barre/article_d39432df-fd0d-59de-913f-8da77ad71dcf.htmlRoads Less Traveled with Jethro Tull’s Martin BarreOct 6, 2018 PLYMOUTH, N.H. — The Flying Monkey Performance Center presents The Martin Barre Band on Saturday, October 20th at 7:30 pm. Best known as the lead guitarist for Jethro Tull, Barre has since gained critical and fan praise for his solo projects. Tickets for this concert start at $29. It’s not that Martin Barre wants to forget Jethro Tull—the group in which he was a member for 43 years—but he’s certainly moved on musically. Although the Grammy Award-winning Barre is most closely associated with Tull—he joined the band in 1969 for its second album, Stand Up, and was continually hailed by critics for his virtuosic playing—he also has a solid body of solo work and collaboration with musicians including Paul McCartney and Phil Collins. After Tull founder and frontman Ian Anderson shifted musical direction in 2011, Barre began to tour with his own band. “This has been a whole turning point musically. We will always have the Tull connection—that goes back to my roots and our fan base,” says Barre, “but I want to take the fans with me. Essentially our musical style isn’t really changing.” The way Barre approached life after Tull was to write and record new music. 2015’s Back to Steel had a decidedly blues rock flavor, as well as renderings of classic Jethro Tull tracks “Skating Away” and “Slow Marching Band”. On his latest album Roads Less Traveled, Barre says, “I’ve concentrated on improving my songwriting over the last few years and as a result, I am really pleased… Although my playing has a lot of space in the music, I’ve worked a lot harder on the arrangements and lyrics. Barre fans can expect him to perform some of his new material. But Jethro Tull fans can also rejoice and expect to hear the Tull hits. “[Jethro Tull music] will always be a part of my work,” Barre says. “But I hope it becomes about 40 percent instead of 60 percent. I will never turn my back on it, though. I’m not so stupid that I don’t know that people come to hear me play so they can hear Tull. But a lot of that music is in me, anyway. That’s not far from home. It will always be there. It’s a great night out,” Barre said of going to the band’s shows. “The music is for everybody.” Tickets for Martin Barre Band are $29, and $39 for premier seating. For more information on upcoming shows or to purchase tickets call the box office at 603-536-2551 or go online at www.flyingmonkeyNH.com.

www.fairfaxtimes.com/articles/barre-none-rock-giant-heads-to-jammin-java/article_511e2bbe-cd8f-11e8-ba9b-5f96a9fa2dd9.htmlBarre None: Rock giant heads to Jammin JavaBy Keith Loria / Special to the Fairfax County Times Oct 11, 2018  Jethro Tull guitarist Martin Barre continues to rock at 71.SUBMITTED PHOTOThe unmistakable guitar intro on Jethro Tull’s “Aqualung” is among the most beloved and recognized in the annals of rock music, and the man behind the strings is also responsible for the driving guitar in “Locomotive Breath,” “Bungle in the Jungle” and “Too Old To Rock ‘n’ Roll: Too Young To Die.” For more than four decades, guitarist Martin Barre was the right-hand man to Jethro Tull singer Ian Anderson, playing some of the most memorable riffs in music. But in 2012, when Anderson surprisingly said the group was done, it left Barre without a rock band to call home. So, he put together the Martin Barre Band, and the group has been touring for five years now. On Oct. 14, Barre and his bandmates will make a return trip to Jammin Java, one of the first venues the new band played. Their latest album, “Roads Less Traveled” was released just this week. “We’re showcasing this new CD, and we’ll be playing about five of the new songs; plus, we have a complete set of new Tull tracks we’re playing,” Barre said. “We probably have changed the set by more than 50 percent for those who came out last time. And judging from people’s comments, it’s better than ever.” With Jethro Tull’s long history and success—the band sold more than 60 million albums worldwide—Barre knows that many of those coming out are fans of the legendary band and want to hear the tunes. “Like it or not, and I do like it, I know people come to hear Tull and are there because of the heritage,” he said. “But they are great with the new material and they like it. It’s a very open-minded audience and they go with the flow. Even if we go with something strange, like a Beatles song, they love it.” Whereas five years ago, the band played several instrumentals, Barre said he doesn’t expect any at this show, and “Roads Less Traveled” only has one. “I’ve tried to develop as a song writer and I’d rather have an album of 11 songs that are all playable on stage than 4-5 songs,” he said. “I don’t want endless guitar solos, or riffy rock generic music. I want there to be a lot of contrast and feel and emotion throughout the CD and it helps the band play live.” The Martin Barre band just welcomed a new drummer to the mix—Darby Todd —and the rest of the lineup consists of vocalist Dan Crisp, bassist Alan Thomson and drummer Dave Schoepke. At 71 years of age, Barre is older than the lot of them. “Most of the musicians I meet in my age group are miserable, grumpy, and not flexible, but I prefer that healthy, young attitude towards life and music, which is why it works so well,” Barre said. “I end up working with really young players.” The excitement of being on stage is still a big draw to Barre, and now that he’s no longer in the backdrop of Anderson—who was notorious for not allowing the band to do much out front—he’s enjoying being in control more. “I am more comfortable now. I play well and try to make it melodic and tasteful and I give the guys in the band a lot of space to show what they can do,” he said. “We really have a lot of fun. There’s not a night I’m not laughing or grinning. If someone plays the wrong note, we laugh, where as in Tull’s day, we probably would have gotten fired. We are having a great time playing music.” With Jethro Tull, Barre admitted he never had the opportunity to say a word, and he’s liking having a voice at his concerts now. A venue like Jammin Java is intimate, a type of atmosphere Jethro Tull rarely if ever played and Barre has enjoyed that aspect of his new band as well. “In an ideal world, I like playing for between 300-800 people as you can see everybody and they feel part of the band because they’re close,” Barre said. “The audio will be better, and essentially, I just like playing regardless of how many people are there.”

beverly.wickedlocal.com/news/20181012/music-preview-jethro-tull-alum-martin-barre-coming-to-cabotMUSIC PREVIEW: Jethro Tull alum Martin Barre coming to The CabotBy Greg Phipps Posted Oct 12, 2018 at 4:15 PM For most casual rock music fans, any mention of Jethro Tull no doubt brings to mind domineering flutist and lead vocalist Ian Anderson. But for anyone who grew up following Tull on a closer scale, lead guitarist Martin Barre holds a long-standing and revered place in the group’s lengthy history. In a band that had experienced multiple personnel changes during its time, Barre was a constant, serving as Tull’s guitarist from the release of “Stand Up” (the group’s second album) in 1969 to 2012, when the band dissolved after 43 years of recording and touring. Barre has gone on to form his own band, as has Anderson. Having just released a new album “Roads Less Travelled,” Barre and his band, featuring Dan Crisp on guitar and vocals and Alan Thomson on bass, will visit the Cabot Performing Arts Center in Beverly on Friday, Oct. 19 (scheduled 8 p.m. start). There is no arguing that Tull’s iconic FM radio standard “Aqualung” is probably best recognized for Barre’s memorable guitar riff that opens the song. In fact, that particular riff has gained acknowledgement as one of the best ever in rock history. Asked if he missed being a part of Tull, Barre said he’s enjoying the excitement of having his own band but the Tull experience will always be embedded in him. “Everything I’ve ever done or been a part of of, I stand by it. The music stands forever,” he said. “It was moment in time. It’s not me now but it was me in 1969, ’72, ’81, and ’93, whenever it was, and I think that’s what music’s about. If you go back and listen to a Beatles album from the early days, you see that it’s fantastic music, great songs. The songs were great then and they’ll always be great songs. I’m proud what Tull’s done. It’s my heritage and I’ve earned it.” Having released four albums with his band since 2013, the 71-year-old Barre has kept himself busy and active by touring on a regular basis. That’s the way he prefers it. “I like writing and arranging music. I like having a band and using all those years of experience,” he observed. “It’s not like a job you apply for. I like the freedom and I’ve got a lot of ideas and innovation in me. It’s not like I’m a tired, old rocker. I feel more like a born-again Christian finding his true calling.” No longer working within the framework of Tull, particularly Anderson, who wrote most of the group’s material, Barre acknowledged that the Tull years still readied him for his present solo venture. “Jethro Tull suited me because the music was always very varied and challenging,” he said. “I did a few solo albums and toured on my time off (from Tull) in the ’90s. I enjoyed it and I think it prepared me for this.” As for the solo material, Barre said it’s been well-received at shows and it comes from a multitude of musical influences. “I just do what I do and don’t have any preconceived idea of where to take the music,” he explained. “Instead, I let it take me somewhere. I wouldn’t play the (solo material) if the fans didn’t really enjoy it. The reaction has been great and it works well live. That’s the way I want it to be.” For Barre, the notion that something could go wrong during the performance of the songs would only lead to holding himself accountable. “If something goes wrong, I can only blame myself. What influences my music is everything and anything. I’m not a blues writer, a rock writer, or a folk writer. All those influences probably come into it but I don’t have an agenda,” he said. “I don’t categorize it. I listen to all music - bluegrass, country, jazz, rock, heavy metal, whatever it is. It will be embedded in my memory. And if I like it, it will become an influence - maybe,” Barre laughed. Of course, attendees at the upcoming Cabot show can expect a good dose of Jethro Tull to go with the solo stuff. But the Tull songs may be ones that Anderson and company ceased playing live decades ago. “When I started my band it was great to play ‘Minstrel in the Gallery,’ ‘Teacher,’ ‘Sweet Dream’ and “Song For Jeffrey’. I loved it because because they were songs Tull hadn’t played (live) in 30 or 40 years,” Barre pointed out. “We’re certainly looking to keep changing it up (with the Tull music). We’ll try different songs. I don’t want to be playing the same songs for the sake of it. I like change, progression, and don’t want to stand still.” Looking forward, Barre said he has plans to take part in an American tour next year celebrating Tull’s 50th anniversary with ex-Tull members Jonathan Noyce (bassist) and Clive Bunker (drums). The tour will also feature special guests. “I’ll be putting my own music on the sideline for a few months,” he said. “It’s just upping the game and I think it’s going to be a nice 50th anniversary celebration. I’m excited about it.”
