Dom Martin is a Belfast born artist, inspired but not constrained by the blues. His main musical influences are Rory Gallagher, Roy Buchanan, Tom Waits, John Martyn, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Howlinโ Wolf and Muddy Waters.
With five BBC Radio live sessions prior to a first album release, Dom impressed with his 2018 debut original EP โEasy Way Outโ with BBC presenter Cerys Matthews describing his work as โabsolutely wonderful stuff.โ
His debut album โSpain to Italyโ was released in December 2019 to critical acclaim.
After his debut sell out "Spring โ19 UK Tourโ, Blues in Britain Magazine said - "Now and again you stumble across a rare talent of such sheer genius that you actually wonder whether what you have witnessed can possibly be for real. Dom Martin is one such talent"
"A Savage Life" Dom's second studio album was released in April 2022.
โWith a certain glib inevitability, Dom Martin has been billed as the new Rory Gallagher. Letโs not. The Belfast guitarist is a sprawling talent who deserves investigation on his own merits.โ โ 9/10 Classic Rock
