“I found The Stick Martin Show by accident on myspace one day. I dug them so much that I immediately played ’Don’t Be a Dick’ on the air. I then made it a point to catch them live and have had their CD in my car ever since. I haven’t been this excited about a band in a long time.”

Cowhead - The Cowhead Show, 105.5 The Bone - Radio Show Host - April 2008

“Maybe the sincerity versus irony debate is beside the point. After all, whether or not Martin means it, his songs are damn catchy. Watch the “White Trash” vid a couple of times and you’ll be quoting him too.”
Cooper- Levey Baker - Creative Loafing Tampa - August 22, 2007

“[The Stick Martin Show is] the best! We’ve had multiple gigs together and they go above and beyond to
please a crowd.”

Fisher - FisherX@97Xonline.com Radio Show Host, Tampa - 2006

"Stick is brilliantly charismatic and his Show is a nonstop blast - funny, smart, energetic!"

Rick Gershman - St. Pete Times - March 25, 2005

"Guitar strumming hotties!"
Arien Rozelle - Seventeen Magazine - Dec. 2004

“Mr. Stick Martin will ignite your brain lava with his lyrical genius and they are sure to get you off your seat.”
Terri Wilcox - Timez Out - April 2006

"Their youthful energy ignites each performance."

Cianna Vinni - Hernando Newsletter - Dec 2003

“The audience involved stage show, groovy hip-folk style, slew of catchy tunes and meld of influences seem to be able to entertain almost anyone.”

Frances Brennan - Dunedin Free Press - Sept 2006

Stick Martin (singer, songwriter, guitar) has been featured on BET’s 106 and Park
and in SEVENTEEN Magazine while living in NYC.
He had been playing shows for a few years
(CBGB’s, Kenny’s Castaways, Sidewalk Café, Artland)
and had been supporting himself
by busking on subway trains.

He relocated to the Tampa Bay area in 2002
where he met bassist/singer songwriter E. Harlow.
They formed The Stick Martin Show
and began gigging relentlessly
to avoid having day jobs.

Over the last 6 years they have booked over 1000 shows with zero cancellations.
They’ve received much local media coverage
including air-play on
Tampa’s 97X, 98 Rock, 88.5 WNMF, 105.5 The Bone
as well as album and live show reviews in
St. Petersburg Times, Creative Loafing,
Dunedin Free Press,
Timez Out and The Hernando Newsletter.

They’ve acquired a dedicated fan base
with over ten thousand Myspace friends
and clock over fifty thousand hits
to they’re website each year.

With their latest edition, drummer,
Matt Picard, the 3 piece is busy gigging
in support of Thrilla’
as well recording their upcoming rock album,
Houses of the Harlow due out spring 2009.

Their live performances are
awesome, fascinating, incredible,
marvelous, prodigious, shocking, surprising,
unbelievable, and wonderful.
The bands ability to switch gears into
just about any music genre
keeps even the most difficult crowds
drinking and dancing.
