Glynis John Martin Making Music A Family Affair JP ENTERTAINMENT/NITRAM RECORDZ Artist Interview by: Susan Frances Singer, songwriter drummer and bass player Glynis John Martin (aka G John Martin From the Blackice CD) delivers a familiar sounding R&B/smooth soul mixture on his self-titled debut release, Black Ice, which recalls of Motown artists like Smokey Robinson and Marvin Gaye. Martin’s familiar sound might be partly due to the fact that he was exposed to Motown’s music from having been born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, the incubator for Motown’s artists; or maybe it is based in the fact that he has played as a sideman for such memorable R&B/soul artists in Detroit He exposes how his childhood nurtured his talent. “Of course, growing up in a household where music was a constant part of our family. My mom sang in church; made the choir robes and band costumes. Dad played several instruments and my older sister performed in talent shows, while my older brother played guitar. It was destined to happen. Of course, growing up in the ‘Motor City,’ naturally many had high expectations of us.” Caused him to form JP Entertainment/Nitram Recordz an entertainment CO. that dose just about all types of music with recording engineers on staff for jingles and mixes of other artist CD's..... He explains that he Talent come GOD and MOTOWN. For his debut record, Black Ice, Martin relied heavily on his family as collaborators, backup singers, musicians, and a source of inspiration for the tracks. He claims that makes up the company. I was hoping by some chance I could follow in the footsteps of musical greats such as Stevie, Luther and Donny Hathaway. It has always been a long time dream of mine - And it’s time!” For more information: www.myspace.com/glynismartin
