Carrie Martin Music

Born in Hull, Carrie is an acoustic guitarist and singer/songwriter.
She fronted bands in the 90s before casting her music aside in order
to raise her children, her guitar went untouched for some two decades
until a chance meeting with guitar virtuoso Gordon Giltrap changed her
life.
Close mentoring from Gordon saw her take a huge leap forward,
attracting endorsements from Vintage Guitars,G7th Capos, Martin
Strings and just recently she became an artists for Faith Guitars.

Her last two albums Seductive Sky and Entity included guests Elliott
Randall, Gordon Giltrap, Oliver Wakeman, Daniel Cassidy (brother of
late Eva Cassidy) and ex Bad Company guitarist Dave Colwell.
Her latest album ‘Evergreen’ includes lead guitarist Roger Fisher from the rock band Heart.
All albums are a magnificent snapshot of an artist at the peak of
her creativity and gaining her fine reviews plus the chance to perform
under the Vintage Guitar banner at NAMM in 2019/21 &22

Quotes

‘Phenomenal’ Rick Wakeman CBE


‘The voice is distinctive - the crystalline purity and range of a Kate Bush, the depth and delicacy of a Sandy Denny.
The chord sequence of the title track evokes Joni Mitchell's Hejira album.’
Trevor Raggatt RnR Mag

It’s pretty obvious from the moment you hear Carrie Martin sing that
she is an outstanding vocalist with passion in each breath.Don’t be
too sidetracked by that voice, stage persona and well crafted songs,
because you might just miss the fact that she is a fine guitar player
as well!
Gordon Giltrap MBE
