Reviews
“Martin is an exceptional musician (pianist) playing a whole range of music, excelling in Jazz. He’s great at interacting with customers and never fails to please, he’ll read the room knowing when it’s time to get the crowd going or tinkle away in the background. Would highly recommend to anyone whether a business or private party."
Laura
“Martin is an incredibly proficient and adaptable musician, talented in many instruments but especially when it comes to keys. He is able to play classic jazz standards, beautiful and complex music freestyle or adapt to any style."
Steve
“I've known Martin for a number of years and he's always been super reliable and easy to communicate with about gigs. He's been playing in Estuary Wine Bar for about three years now. Great musician with a real skill to interact with the crowd. We always look forward to having him at the bar and enjoying some jazz music."
