- Martin Carthy MBE is an English folk singer and guitarist who has remained one of the most influential figures in British traditional music, inspiring contemporaries such as Bob Dylan and Paul Simon and later artists such as Richard Thompson since he emerged as a young musician in the early days of the folk revival. He was born in Hatfield on 21 May 1941 and grew up in Hampstead, North London. After leaving school, he worked behind the scenes at the open air theatre at Regent's Park as a prompter, then an assistant stage manager (ASM) on a tour of The Merry Widow, and then at Theatre in the Round in Scarborough. He then sang in coffee bars. He became a resident at the Troubadour Folk Club in Earls Court in the early 1960s. He joined Redd Sullivan's Thameside Four in 1961. He is a renowned solo performer of traditional songs in a very distinctive style, accompanying himself on acoustic guitar; his style is marked by the use of alternative tunings, and a strongly percussive picking style that emphasizes the melody. His debut album, Martin Carthy, was released in 1965, and also featured Dave Swarbrick playing fiddle on some tracks, although he was not mentioned in the album's sleeve notes. Carthy's arrangement of the traditional ballad Scarborough Fair was adapted, without acknowledgment, by Paul Simon on the Simon and Garfunkel album recording Parsley Sage Rosemary and Thyme in 1966. He has also been involved with many musical collaborations. He has sung with The Watersons since 1972, was twice a member of the UK electric folk group Steeleye Span, was a member of the Albion Country Band 1973 line-up, with members from the Fairport Convention family and John Kirkpatrick, that recorded the 'Battle of the Field' album, and was part of the innovative Brass Monkey ensemble, which mixed a range of brass instruments with Carthy's guitar and mandolin and John Kirkpatrick's accordion, melodeon and concertina. For many years Carthy has enjoyed a creative partnership with fiddle player Dave Swarbrick and, more recently, has provided the forum for a successful partnership with partner Norma Waterson together with their daughter Eliza Carthy. In June 1998 he was appointed an MBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours. He was named Folk Singer of the Year at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards in 2002, and again in 2005 when he also won the award for Best Traditional Track for 'Famous Flower of Serving Men'. In the 2007 Folk Awards Martin Carthy and Dave Swarbrick won "Best duo".

- Martin Carthy, engelsk folksångare och gitarrist. Carthy gjorde sina första soloskivor på 1960-talet och blev snabbt en förebild för många folksångare och gitarrister. Bland annat använde Paul Simon Carthys arrangemang av Scarborough Fair som grund för Simon & Garfunkels tolkning av sången. Under de första skivorna samarbetade Carthy med Dave Swarbrick, ett samarbete som återupptagits från 1990-talet och framåt. Carthy var under två skilda perioder medlem i Steeleye Span och har även sjungit och spelat med grupperna Brass Monkey, Watersons och Waterson Carthy. Carthy har belönats av drottning Elizabeth II för sina insatser för engelsk tradiotionell musik.
