A versatile multi-instrumentalist (vibraphone, drums, percussion) and composer. Lucía belongs to the new young generation of jazz musicians in Europe, but with the flavour from the south. Her style is influenced for the folk music from Galicia (North Spain), flamenco and all the music from Mediterranean, mixing it with the new avant-garde music.
Four years ago she founded her own Quartet as a leader, where she plays drums, percussion and also writes the compositions, with members of the new jazz generation of musicians coming from the south Europe: João Pedro Brandão on flute and alto sax; Pedro Neves on piano and melodica and Carl Minnemann on doublebass.

They played also live fo TVG (television from Galicia-Spain) on the 24 of July 2007.
They just recorded her first album “Lucia Martinez Quartet: Soños e delirios”, whith the additional contributions of Perico Sambeat on alto saxophone, Maria João, vocals, Jose Alberto Gomes on electronics, and Juantxin and Toto on clapping. The CD is produced by Baldo Martínez.
This is a new and original project, led by a young woman, drummer, percussionist and composer, who introduced a proposal solid and interesting, ready to grow and consolidated over time.
Felicitaciones Lucia, tu trabajo es buenisimo... ya tiene trios, cuartetos, etc, podemos hacer un duo que es lo que te falta jejeje. Un beso y a ver si tocamos pronto.
Lucia, now that is JAZZ!!!! What a wonderful, unique sound. I was so taken in by the subtle start of "Lucecita . . ." as the percussion started, gave way to the bass while the piano hid in the back. Then at :42 you had me when the music just took off . . . . And "Disponibilidade . . . ." is as good as it gets. Thanks for the friendship. I will return to listen again and again. Be well
