Martin Luke Brown - Session & Interview

posted 29.05.14 at 11:50am

Last week, we welcomed Martin Luke Brown to the URN Studios for an exclusive session and interview, where he performed a fantastic rendition of Coldplay's Magic, before a stunning stripped-back version of his brand new single Nostalgia.

About Martin:

Martin has been championed by BBC Introducing, also performed in the 2012 Olympic Park and in late 2013, he won the GIGS: Big Busk competition ran by Mayor of London. His music fuses elements of soul and funk with a modern edge. He is comfortable performing solo or with his band (acoustic or electric) and is guaranteed to deliver his performance with infectious energy.

BBC's Tom Robinson described Martin as "A self-taught multi-instrumentalist, writing and performing since the tender age of 14. Packing gutsy vocals with toe-tapping rhythms, Martin writes a real eclectic mix of songs with a distinct 'from the heart out the mouth' feel unifying them.”

Now after having spent the last 6 months working with a host of producers and writers, Martin is releasing his first official video as the first look and listen to his new material.
