Martin Sexton is one of the modern legends on the independent folk music circuit with a voice that'll grab you by the soul and demand both your attention and your heart. His rhythmic, finger-style guitar playing can make it seem as if he's backed by a full band even when he's playing solo. If you are new to Sexton's music, he has a breezy, affable sound that resides midway between the old-school charm of James Taylor and the spunk and swagger of a young John Mayer.
“He jumps beyond standard fare on the strength of his voice, a blue-eyed soul man’s supple instrument.His unpretentious heartiness helps him focus on every soul singer’s goal: to amplify the sound of the ordinary heart.” — The New York Times
