Martin Luke Brown

A soulful English singer/songwriter with a keen ear for classic melodies and a knack for crafting reflective and relatable modern pop songs, Leicester-based Martin Luke Brown draws from a deep well of inspiration that includes Stevie Wonder, Sam Smith, Adele, and the Beatles. Brown issued his debut single, the wistful and aptly named "Nostalgia," in 2014, with the Take Me Out EP arriving the following year. Subsequent singles included "Shadow and Light," "Love Me Sober," and 2017's moving "65 Roses," the latter of which was a tribute to his ex-girlfriend, who had recently passed away after battling cystic fibrosis. ~ James Christopher Monger
