Intervals by Andy Martin

The new single is a cover version of the John Miles composition `MUSIC´, which was a European mega-hit for John Miles in 1976.

*The new trance/electronic version, which has caught the ear of the original producer, Alan Parsons, is the definitive modern version & is unequalled in its production as well as its achingly beautiful & dramatic vocal performance. Nothing less could have been acceptable for this song & nothing less was given by Andy Martin, who´s vocal timbre is reminiscent of John Miles himself.

Quote: THE STAGE / London, UK: "Clearly Andy Martin is a man in love with music" - this is proven beyond all doubt in this recording. Not since Freddie Mercury has any vocalist ranged a song with such a performance.

*His incredible performance (recorded in surround 5.1 Dolby) graces an 80+ track recording by keyboardist Jean-Michel Danton & his powerful array of sequencers & samplers. Working in synchronous perfection, the result is a performance of spine chilling perfection. Such complexity is not possible by human hands alone - presiding over an orchestra that defies the imagination, maestro Jean-Michel plays a laser harp & conducts from center stage simultaneously. The result is a visual & sonic experience that is beyond philharmonic.

*This is a visionary recording without equal. A milestone which sets new precedents in its genre, merging both human & invisible virtual performers from cyberspace in perfect rhyming & sequential unison.

*Cutting across all listener demographics, MUSIC is set to become THE hit record of 2007 & a timeless classic of the future in its own right.

*Like Bohemian Rhapsody, which ran for 6 minutes, this epic recording of MUSIC cuts the airwaves at 7 minutes & takes the listener to new heights of sonic discovery. Not since Bohemian Rhapsody (1975) has there been any equal to the Queen classic - until now! This is simply a work of unparalleled genius & without doubt the release of 2007.

Truly, this is the song of songs, performed like never before by two most distinguished talents - accompanied by the orchestra of the Gods!

From his debut public performance of WALTZING MATILDA - at 7 years of age! - to the present day, Andy has gone on to perform in prestige venues such as Sun City in Southern Africa & was the resident musician/entertainer at Stringfellows Nightclub in Covent Garden, London (1994/95). Andy was also a regular performer (twice weekly) at Ciro´s Pomodoro, 51 Beauchamp Place, Knightsbridge, London.

Other prestige UK venues where Andy has appeared include Blazers Club in Windsor & at the invitation of Baronet Sir Dai Llewellyn to perform at his London club 'The Embassy' in Knightsbridge. More recently, he was asked to play for members of the Boeing family during 2004 & was re-booked for their Xmas party in 2005.

AWARDS: He has won several awards for his songwriting.

These include a SARIE nomination for his No.15 single PERFECT SIGNS b/w BLUE GUITAR (MINC 1985) & 1st place in the Australian annual World Pater Awards (1992) sponsored by Radio Australia, Mushroom Records & The Victorian Rock Foundation in Melbourne.

In the UK, Andy was the outright winner of the 2CR Radio 'Starsearch' contest - the finals being held at the Bournemouth Winter Gardens in front of a capacity audience. He had no hesitation in performing one of his own songs GO NOW & this performance secured him 1st place & an airline ticket to Nashville, USA.

In 1985 he wrote the radio jingle for Canadian Pacific Airways & in 1994 scored 2 album cuts in Australia on the SONY/COLUMBIA & MUSHROOM/FESTIVAL labels. One of these songs, HEART DON´T BREAK was chosen for newcomer T.C. Cassidy from New Zealand & produced in Sydney by Garth Porter, ex-keyboard player of the 70's hit group 'Sherbet' (who scored an international No.1 record with their song HOWZAT).

Essentially Andy is a live performer & has performed for 4 cruise lines - TT Lines (Australia), P&O (UK), SAFLEISURE (Cape Town) & Island Cruises (UK). He has also entertained in numerous 5 star international hotels which include The Cape Sun in Cape Town, The Plettenberg Bay Hotel, The Johannesburger, The Cascades Hotel (Sun City) & in Australia, The Melbourne Hilton.

On the cabaret & show circuit, Andy has appeared with Smokey Robinson, Peter Sarstedt, Emile Ford, The Marmalade, Joe Longthorne, The Rockin' Berries, Hot Chocolate, Lenny Henry, The Real Thing & even The Bay City Rollers! Andy bought his first stage suit from Mike Sheridan of The Nightriders fame! These names may not be so contemporary now - but they have all been big stars & to have worked with names such as these does prove that Andy has earned the priveledge, having also learned his stagecraft as a performer.

Andy has been featured on radio in Australia, The UK & Spain & has of course also appeared on television. He was a regular guest on 'In Melbourne Today' & also appeared on GMTV Channel 10 in Sydney when he was officially presented with a World Pater Award for his winning song SAVE THE WORLD, reflecting public concern on environmental issues. (A very famous recipient of a World Pater Award is Sir Bob Geldof)

Andy was chosen to entertain a delegation of US Senators from The White House on a goodwill & investment visit to Cape Town during 1985 & this was in the company of President Botha of South Africa & other dignitaries. COSMOPOLITAN MAGAZINE chose him as the sole entertainer for their annual 'Crystal Ball' in Johannesburg the same year.

During 1997, Andy re-located to the Canary Islands. He was offered more cruise work with Royal Carribbean-Celebrity Cruise Lines but declined so as to concentrate on the preparation of his debut CD entitled ´INTERVALS´, which was completed & mastered in Germany.

The first single, ROCKIN´ ON THE AIRWAVES, has notched up serious airtime in Holland, whilst in the UK, the same track was playlisted by AiiRadio.net & went to #1 twice in the station´s independent chart. To acknowledge this achievement the station added the song to their ´HALL OF FAME´. A second track, WATERFRONT STREET, also hit the #1 slot at AiiRadio whilst the CD charted at #1 on 27/01/05. A further track, a duet called STAY featuring UK vocalist Hollie Bourne, hit #1 at AiiR as a result of international listener votes.

Driven by his love & lifelong commitment to music, Andy writes with a depth & insight that is honest & sincere. Some of his songs, prose & poems were chosen for inclusion on the world´s largest website devoted to the poet & philosopher KAHLIL GIBRAN (www.kahlil.org)

Perhaps the greatest accolade of all is from fellow artistes & music colleagues. Legendary singer-songwriter PETER SARSTEDT wrote the first review of the Intervals CD, which is a marvellous endorsement indeed. This loyalty & acceptance by his peers, as well as his audiences around the world, have been synonymous in Andy´s life.

During 2004, Andy accepted an offer of personal management & now resides in Europe, appearing in Switzerland, The Netherlands & Germany.
