The Daintees Trio
40 years ago Martin Stephenson & The Daintees released critically acclaimed debut album Boat To Bolivia. In Spring 2026, Martin celebrates the milestone with a stripped back acoustic trio tour of smaller, more intimate venues.
Martin and the band plan to tour 40 years since the inception of Boat To Bolivia which saw its roots develop late 1985 in Liverpool.
It was there that a determined and aspiring young songwriter started to scribble down the bones of what for many Daintees fans became instant classics, before the finished product was released in all its glory in 1986.
Between performing the album in its entirety Martin will regale how the words and music began to come together, and the excitement of Kitchenware Records recognising its potential before releasing it to critical acclaim with legendary producer Gil Norton at the helm.
