His debut album, The New Standard, made waves as one of the rare UK and Irish records to break into the Top Ten in this genre - no small feat in the world of crooners and big band brilliance.

The show is no museum piece. Backed by an exceptional band, Martin reshapes these golden standards with subtle modern touches, creating a sound that nods to the legends but speaks fluently to today’s audience. Whether it’s the swing of “Fly Me to the Moon” or the velvet romance of “Unforgettable” expect an evening of pure class, effortless delivery and a fresh take on the music that never goes out of style.

As Jazz Journal put it, “McCafferty walks the fine line between homage and originality with remarkable ease.”
