About Classic Albums Live
Founded in 2003 by Craig Martin, Classic Albums Live re-creates the greatest albums live on stage—note for note, cut for cut, using the best musicians. “Think of it as a recital,” says founder Craig Martin, “these albums are historic and stand the test of time.” Forgoing costumes and impersonations, Classic Albums Live has found success in concentrating solely on the music. “We don’t dress up or wear any sort of costume. All of our energy is put into the music. We want the performance to sound exactly like the album,” says Martin. In 2023 Classic Albums Live celebrated its 20th anniversary; it has expanded its repertoire to include more than 45 different records and delivers more than 200 performances annually across North America. “We created something that endures and connects. These albums are sacred to people. We deliver exactly what we promote—‘note for note, cut for cut’ accuracy,” says Martin.
