We are delighted to welcome MLB (Martin Luke Brown) of indie-pop supergroup FIZZ to Jumbo on Saturday 22nd February 2025, for a very special gig to celebrate the release of his new album 'man oh man !'. Martin will take to the Jumbo stage at 4pm.
For entry to the gig, pre-order 'Man Oh Man!' on Orange Vinyl or CD HEREMarking a significant new era in both his personal and musical life, Martin tackles a myriad of themes; self-awareness and personal growth, treasured friendships, swept-off-your-feet romance and gut wrenching heartbreak - all with a laidback, indie singer-songwriter sound that naturally shapes the album into three linear phases: the end of a relationship, new beginnings and the consequential feeling of accepting change.
Described by Martin as a 'time capsule', each track on the album was written and recorded in one day, making for a raw and honest snapshot of Martin's life experiences at the time. Instrumentation is simple and recorded with producer and friend Matt Zara using almost exclusively analog technology, tape machines and vintage mics, a messiness that the duo embraced from the get go.
Martin has released over 100 songs as either a co-writer or a producer, with BTS, Dylan, Jacob Banks, Gavin James, Sam Tompkins, James Smith, Sody and Jack Kane. He has also seen a wealth of success as part of pop supergroup FIZZ alongside Orla Gartland, dodie, and Greta Isaac, earning widespread praise from the likes of Rolling Stone UK, Dork, DIY, Clash & more.
