Mazlyn Jones is an alter-ego of Nigel Mazlyn Jones, who has released 11 albums since 1976 when he established his ‘Isle of Light Records’ label on which most of his subsequent material has been released. The first two albums ‘Ship to Shore’ 1976 and ‘Sentinel’ 1979 are sought by collectors and were re-released with extra tracks and sleeve notes by Kissing Spell in 2002 and 2008.
Nigel specialises in acoustic 12 string guitars woven with wide dynamics and Glissando bowed styles. He lives and records near the Cornish coast and some of his work reflects this closeness to the elements. There are emotions and edge in the lyrics and the tradition of saying it like it is.
His history proves his love of nature and this comes across strongly in his lyrics and instrumentals as does his refusal to be compromised and sidetracked from his view of life which has never wavered “its one small planet we are all on and we rapidly need to get it together and look after it better before it turns on us all”
