Marshall Artz

Football season has officially arrived and there have been some end runs that have caused us to punt. When we showed up for our show at Kilroy's the whole shopping center was powerless because of tropical storm Hanna. This meant that we were powerless to perform (even as an acoutsic act)! Heading over to Redskins Park in Ashburn for an Old Dominion show we suffered a sack when the place went out of business. Brittany's Sports bar forfeited the music game for a while and turned up the volume on their TV sets. Don't worry, we're still in the game. So keep an eye on our web calendar. You can expect an e-mailer to our next show and we will expect to see you there.
In the meantime Marshall Artz is busy in the recording studio working on our upcoming CD. Music making is what we do best!

Kevin and Brad have been busy since Kevin returned from the beautiful garden island of Kauai. As soon as he got through the door he received a call to arrange an interview with Voice of America for a piece they are airing on C. F. Martin & Company's 175th anniversary. Thanks to Dick Boak and Len Jaffe the interview took place with Susan Logue Koster and is to be broadcast world wide. We hope our fans in the U.K., Japan, and around the world tune in to find out why we choose Martin guitars to communicate our music.

That same week Kevin went to Nazareth Pennsylvania with his son, Brendan, and son-in-law, Kevin, to enjoy the third annual Martin Owner's Club event at the place where all these excellent instruments are made. Kevin and his sons played for the open mike, toured the museum and factory, and sampled many of the guitars showcased at the event. We spent some time with Dick Boak whose enthusiasm was obvious and contagious.
Now it's back into Cue Recording Studios to continue capturing the songs for our next recording project. We'll see you at our next performance. A splendid time is guaranteed for all!
