"Blues flavored Roots Rock with a slice of Americana pie" I was born the son of a sailor and grew up around the world. Exposed to so many different cultures and styles of music in my formative years left me with a love of three things. Meeting new people, exploring new places, and music. I love music and as Louis Armstrong said,” There are two kinds of music; the good kind, and the bad kind. I love the good kind." I fell in love with the guitar at an early age. Mom has a picture of me when I was a kid playing air guitar with a broom. And although I love all kinds of music, I have to say my first love is the blues. I first heard the blues from the British guitar gods like Eric Clapton. I quickly discovered and fell in love with the American blues guitar players like BB King, Muddy Waters, Albert Collins, Duane Allman and of course Robert Johnson.  Join the email list @ www.bobbymartin.com and I'll keep you up to date on what's happening and you'll be given a link for a free download of "Barnacle Baby" from "The Open Sea" CD.
