ANNOUNCING AUSTRALIAN SINGER-SONGWRITER JODI MARTIN’S NATIONAL ‘DIESEL’ TOUR, 2016

'...Moving songs of disarming honesty and one of the most soulful voices in Australian roots music’
DAVID CURRY, CANBERRA TIMES

‘If you like James Taylor and Jack Johnson, you’ll love Jodi Martin. Authentically Australian.’

‘Martin’s take on folky soul is her own’
TIME OUT MAGAZINE, LONDON

Out of Ceduna’s coastal desert region, travelling singer-songwriter Jodi Martin has been quietly clocking up miles with her suitcase and guitar since she was 17 years old.

Now she’s on the road again, kicking off a three month National ‘Diesel’ Tour in August 2016, showcasing the second single from her new Saltwater extended album. Jodi and her sister Robyn Martin will travel Australia, weaving soulful guitar and bass grooves, poignant and hilarious true stories, and beautiful harmonies as only sisters can.

Jodi Martin has always focused on the coal face: songs and people. In hushed rooms across several continents, Jodi has never stopped sharing her insightful and humorous stories, and honest Indie Folk songs.

As a songwriter, Jodi hits her stride with the stunning extended album, Saltwater, out through MGM, 5 August 2016, consolidating her position as ‘one of Australia’s most talented singer songwriters’ (The Weekend Australian). Boasting three self-penned bonus tracks, this is goosebump territory.

In the words of The Waif’s Josh Cunningham, ‘Saltwater is an Indie Folk masterpiece of catharsis, laced with humour and hope.’
