Victory Music Review declared: “Underground Blues is everything that the Blues should be.”

“Marty Christian recalls the first sides of an acoustic Snooks Eaglin and at times, Van Morrison in a set of collected blues alternating with shakin’ boogies.” - Soul Bag

Marty Christian’s second CD, Underground Blues is part of a movement - bringing the Blues back to its creative roots

Originally from Cleveland, OH, Marty Christian first started to perform his barebones style of soulful acoustic Blues across Southwest Louisiana and Texas in 2001. His first collection of original material, Bluesicana was released in 2006.

Now with his second CD, Underground Blues (2009), an acoustic collection of Delta inspired originals, Marty continues to hone his original blend of acoustic Blues improvisations with traditional roots. Together with fellow Henry Gray and the Cats band member, Andy Cornett, (who plays Harmonica on two tracks) Christian performs regularly in the South and beyond. honoring the great Blues masters who came before – not in repetition but in continuing their tradition of blending the old sounds with new ones – making songs that can never really be repeated from show to show
