Instrumentation Andy Martin plays a Fender Stratocaster and Ovation steel and nylon strung electro-accoustic guitars. BiographyAnglo/Australian Andy Martin resides in Germany but his music lives an international life of its own. His success has come with ROCKIwN´ ON THE AIRWAVES through the London internet station www.AiiRadio.net where the track was twice listener voted number one in late 2004. A sound-clip is permanently on AiiR´s website and the song is in the station´s Hall Of Fame. This track is from his Number 1 CD album and a second track, WATERFRONT STREET also hit number one for him at AiiRadio. On February 10th 2005, the day before the CD´s official launch, a 3rd single from the CD (STAY - a duet featuring Hollie Bourne) also went to number one, virtually guaranteeing that this album has made some form of musical history in the "independently released" retail sector.A hot CD review by Peter Sarstedt (writer of WHERE DO YOU GO TO MY LOVELY) was followed by radio playlisting on many FM stations in the Netherlands and ROCKIN´ ON THE AIRWAVES being featured on Olon Mega Top 50, a radio promotional compilation. The rock classic power ballad CAN´T LOVE NO MORE is off the INTERVALS CD and is available through the Cdbaby and Tower Records catalogues. Registered with Soundscan, INTERVALS is Andy´s latest CD and complete with UPC barcode, is a ready and definite winner to hit the shop shelves.Andy was represented at MIDEM 2005 by Australian Music Marketing Abroad and was featured in the center of the A&R magazine plus 2 tracks on the MIDEM compilation disc: Print run 8,000 units available to Midem attendees and industry-only mailouts.
