You may not immediately recognize the name Martin Barre but it's a safe bet you've heard his music. Starting in 1969, Barre played lead guitar in the great band Jethro Tull. For the next 43 years, Barre's distinctive solos were as much a part of the group's signature sound as the flute and vocal work of Ian Anderson. "Aqualung," "Thick as a Brick" — you name it, he played on it. Now touring with his own band, Barre revisits the classics of the Jethro Tull catalog.

The Martin Barre Band performs Tuesday, December 15, at Lovin' Cup, 300 Park Point Drive. 8 p.m. $20-$25. lovincup.com; martinbarre.com.
