Jason Martin

Every great success or achievement is based on a tale of tenacious resistance, unrelenting resolve, and a passion deep enough to persevere and aspire. Jason Ralph Martin, a Canadian singer-songwriter, music publisher, record producer, independent music recording artist, author of eBooks and audio books, is an example. He was born and raised in Lamaline, Newfoundland, and now calls Ajax, Ontario, home. Jason was a lead singer in two bands before opting to record as a solo artist. He debuted on the music scene at the age of 12 and comes from a family that enjoys Country and Newfoundland music which comes from Canada's rugged east coast. He learned to play guitar while sitting around his father and uncles, observing their every breath and movement. Jason's distinct vocal style will keep you engaged and may also have your toes tapping all night, and having longing to come back for more. His first studio album, Our Newfoundland, was released in February 2018, and he has since released several bluegrass, folk/Newfoundland/Celtic, and country gospel singles, with more singles and albums to follow. Ebooks 'Indie Survival' and 'The Dark Side Of Indie Survival' as well as music singles My Wish, Slow It Down, What Flying Really Means, Take It To The Man On The Cross, Half Full Half Empty Life, Big City Country Blues, He Makes The Day, Realizing The Dream, Brave Lamaliner, The Chummy Song, Saltwater Hands, Lamaline, Berry Pickin' Time, Those Bloody Roundabouts, and We Thank You For Our Newfoundland are some of the most recent launches with more to follow. Jason, his father, and other family members wrote, recorded, mixed and mastered all the tracks out of his home studio JRM Studios, where he continues to work on more great independent music and literary works.
