Influenced by the likes of Bob Dylan, Toby Walker, John Hammond, and Chris Smither, Phil is on a crusade to introduce the Blues to younger audiences. "Cats my age know nothing about roots music, and that's a shame."

Although Phil is Long Island born, he grew up in the Brandywine Valley of Eastern Pennsylvania. In September 2006, Phil returned to the area and now lives in Stony Brook, New York. "It's nice to be back around my extended family. It's like coming home to my own roots."

In just a few short months, Phil has become a crowd favorite at folk societies, festivals and coffee houses throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast states. His fingerstyle guitar playing and instincts for finding new melodies are far beyond his years.

Recent gigs include: Huntington Folk Festival, Riverhead Blues Festival, Budgiedome and Acoustic Live @FRFF, Eclectic Cafe, University Cafe, Cornelia Street Cafe (Soul of the Blues Series), Grounds and Sounds Cafe, The Hard Luck Cafe, Cedar Beach Blues Festival, and Steel City Cafe.

with Rick Gedney 
Terence Martin, one of acoustic music’s top ranked singer-songwriters, showcases a new collection of brilliant songs from Even Trade, his recent CD, as well as songs from Martin’s four previous releases which have made him a favorite of University Café audiences. His powerful songs flow with hauntingly poetic images and elements of folk, blues, and country, the work of an extraordinarily skillful writer whose craftsmanship is first-rate.
Born and raised in Los Angeles, Martin moved East in 1997 to become part of the flourishing NY acoustic music scene. His musical background includes performing as a double bassist in the Burbank Symphony and in several touring rock bands. Also a published poet, his poetry is included in the anthology, “Four Valley Poets.”

Performances at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival and the Boston Folk Festival, among others, have won him a passionate following. Multi-instrumentalist Dan Bonis and bass player Gordon Roehrer accompany Martin in this Café performance from November 2, 2008. (www.martinsongs.com)
