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
