Hello & I'm back online again with a new-look to my website & lots more to come! I've been busier than ever with live performances & it's difficult to find studio time when there are so many venues & people to entertain. As I said in the single, & to quote John Miles - "Music was my first love...and it will be my last..." - how true this is. When you look at the upsurge in touring acts & live performance these days - such as the Rolling Stones, Status Quo, Leonard Cohen, Neil Diamond & so many more, you begin to realise that live performance has again taken precedence. It just means that new releases are longer in the making.
There's a new CD in the works, a book (biography) - and that really is a very demanding project timewise - & there are recordings to be made for other artistes as well just as soon as a window of opportunity arises! I think all artistes have to be much more disciplined these days because there's no record label taking on the duties of old & it's definitely a 360 degree artiste world, where the independent labels & acts have finally evolved beyond their 'Beta' stages.
Welcome to my new website to friends old & new. I look forward to keeping visitors to this website informed & up to date with what's new & on offer musically from Andy Martin - & of course, what matters the most - the songs...
