About Me

Martin Lennon has been a musician since around 1972 and first began performing solo around 1977. He's been a member of a Ceilidh Band, has run a dance company and has recorded all kinds of different music for all kinds of things.

Recently, he's been writing songs like a madman, some of which will be in rotation here. Having performed many of them live, the songs have changed in character a little.

This year (2009) Martin will be recording and releasing a CD, and will embark on an open-ended tour of Britain, possibly taking in Europe, playing folk clubs, bars and tea-rooms in a nationwide search for the perfect cake.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 04/02/2007
Band Members: Currently, just me. At some point in the future, other fabulous musicians will get involved - particularly Andy Gilmour on Bass.
Sounds Like: It's all just notes, words and a beat... I'm not sure it matters which box it can be forcibly stuffed into, really. But if you must - how about folk/blues?

Hopefully I sound like me
Record Label: Unsigned

I swapped out a few of the songs on the player today for a bit of a change. Now we have the slightly odd 'Fish', the grumpy 'Old Heart' and the doomy 'Longer'. When, oh when will I cheer the fuck...

And yet more songs

I've just added another three songs to the player. Having played a few of them at the Star Bar, I'm beginning to get a sense of which songs work and which ones work... less well. All The Long Day tend...

Some new stuff

Welcome to Mr Quartet... my first mySpace friend I've put up three new 'old' pieces of music, which I'll replace with new songs once I've written and recorded them. Accordance is kinda wobbly, not bec...
