Martyn Joseph Chapel Porth Beach ( Radio 2 s 21st Century Folk)
Martyn Joseph performs Chapel Porth Beach to Vicky Murphy and her husband Marc, whose dramatic experience inspired the song. Martyn wrote this as part of 21st Century Folk, Radio 2s series that sees five people have songs written about their lives. Pregnant with her first child, Vicky was trapped in a flooding cave at Chapel Porth beach in Cornwall. Hammered by waves that threatened to drag them out to sea, she and husband Marc believed they would not survive. Thanks to a mystery surfer and two RNLI lifeguards, they did. To hear Vickys full story, find 21st Century Folk on BBC Sounds: Recorded at The Drewe Arms in Drewsteignton, Devon. Produced by 7digital for the BBC.
