Martin Valins is from London England. His music can be described as alternative and acoustic based folk and rock. He was hooked by the sound of The Beatles as a teenager growing up London in during the 1960's. Playing London's college halls and coffee bars with Andy Staines during the 1970's he quickly built a reputation for strong melodic songs with delicate harmonies but a record deal was always elusive. Like the founding members of Pink Floyd he studied architecture at London's Polytechnic and then disappeared from the music scene. Relocating to the USA Martin returned to writing and recording new music in 2015. Martin's journey has led him to create a diverse musical landscape encompassing folk alternative and eastern influences. Martin has released eleven albums on Spotify which includes collaborations with Italian singer songwriter Monica Bergo. Their new album Heart & Soul is now streaming on Spotify.
