ABOUT
Marcus Corbett, a highly individual,UK based singer songwriter with a unique style - has quietly been receiving an esteemed reputation for his esoteric, unique fusion of Indian Classical Music and British Folk....'an artist with a unique blend of intricate acoustic guitar brilliance and a primal vocal delivery influenced by his years in India. A rare exotic jewel'. Sonja Kristina (Curved Air)
As someone who knows the artists said....'Why not add the fact that this is not just another east meets west, where western musicians adorn their stuff with Indian colors and instruments, but a real joint venture.....'
about CD 'STRUNG DEEP'
'....perfect Sunday morning music... I really enjoyed listening through it - it is a very well paced and interesting listen'. Rough Trade (Nigel House)
Songlines..'with his deep affinity with Indian classical music and his expertise in soulfully conveying its essence on the humble acoustic guitar.
'...where other guitar maestros have dipped their toes he's taken the integration a stage further and his collaboration with tabla virtuosos Nitin Gaikwad and Sharanappa Guttaragi on this disc is both fiery and rewarding.'
Fatea: 'His songs migrate between virtuosic instrumental passages and lyrical refrains'. Oxford Mail
