THE JOURNEY CONTINUES
As a street musician in Boston during the late 1980s, Martin Sexton eventually scraped together enough selfproduced recordings to release a demo on 8-track called In the Journey. Sexton would go on to sell 20,000 copies of the album on his own, kick-starting a career that has taken him from busking at Harvard Square to performing at Carnegie Hall and collaborating with John Mayer, who called Sexton “the best live performer I’ve ever seen.” Sexton plays The Rendezvous on Sunday, Jan. 22.
