Stories from the Soho Underworld
The content of this concert is very personal. Martyn Jacques spent the 1980s living in Soho, London. He says the area was very different back then. It was not yet gentrified. The streets were filled with gangsters and showgirls. He met drug dealers, thieves, and eccentrics every night.
These colorful characters inspired his songwriting. Martyn found a rich source of ideas in these dive bars. Some stories are tragic or strange. Others are quite shocking. Together, they create a perfect Serenade from the Sewer. The band continues to surprise and entertain audiences worldwide.
