| Jeff Martin solo tour... |
12 Aug 2008 |

| Jeff Martin will be touring Australia to discuss and promote his new band and its debut release and while here preparing the onslaught, he will perform solo acoustic shows in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane & Perth following his sell out shows earlier this year (see tour section for all details). Truly the calm before The Armada storm… These are the final acoustic shows before Jeff's Les Paul will take centre stage with The Armada. These are also in fact the very first completely solo acoustic shows Jeff has performed in Australia. |

| The Armada is coming... |

| Jeff Martin is nearly done working on his second solo studio album. The new songs were recorded in his studio in Ireland. Jeff played all guitars, bass and keyboards while Wayne P. Sheehy took care of the drums and percussion. Although a tracklisting hasn't been revealed so far, song titles that are expected to be featured are 'Morroco', 'Going Down Blues' and 'A Line In The Sand'. Rumour has it that the album coalesces middle eastern influences, blues and dark moody-sounding songs, which are reminiscent of songs from The Tea Party's '97 era release, Transmission. No release date has been decided upon yet, but the album should be out late summer/early fall 2008, followed by a world-wide tour.

| News about The Armada |

 So folks, what's the news from the Jeff Martin camp. It's been scarce of late so lets get up to date with what's happening, for there surely is a lot going on.Jeff's just back from glorious Australia where, apart from a short break he produced some tracks for up and coming Freo band Stillfire, and managed to squeeze in an intimate gig at Friends restaurant in Perth. Upon his return to Ireland it was straight into the work with a couple of days jamming and writing with Wayne at a secret location on the edge of the world, then back to Kingdom Studios to complete the recording of the new Armada album. As one privy to the new tunes I can tell you now, hang on to your hats, for this is some powerful stuff. Everything you ever loved about Jeff's music is here, multiplied by ten with the addition of Waynes powerhouse drumming. Wait until you hear this, it is truly a huge sound. After that it is hoped to complete final mixing mid July, with an early to mid Autumn release date. In the meantime we're all off to Germany for some dates, (check out the gig list for the details). These will be in the two piece acoustic format, and if you haven't seen this show, you must, for you have never seen two people rock as much as Jeff and Wayne on acoustic guitars and hand drums. That's followed by a close up and personal solo show in Holland, then back to the Emerald Isle to get things in motion for the forthcoming Armada tour. Watch out, there's something special heading your way. |
