About

When Grammy award winning guitarist Martin Taylor, who has collaborated with great singers including Peggy Lee, Martin Carthy, Jamie Cullum, Dionne Warwick and Bryn Terfel, chose to record a special duo album with a vocalist he chose the UK’s fastest rising jazz singer Alison Burns. The album, 1am, which was produced by legendary record producer Tony Platt (Bob Marley, The Who, The Rolling Stones, Buddy Guy), takes its inspiration from the Grammy award winning collaboration between Joe Pass & Ella Fitzgerald, mixing repertoire from The Great American Songbook and contemporary material.

Taylor is the finest British guitarist of his generation.‘ The Times
