2026!

By Uncategorized

We had a brilliant new year in Albufeira. NYE in particular, was tremendous. Thank you to everyone who came along to Steps. I bet the new year started with a few hangovers!

The gigs in Steps will start again in March. In the meantime, I’m going to enjoy being at home, with the fire on.

Jack’s carries on through the winter. I love playing there. It’s an afternoon gig, chilled out & laid back.

The Padel Club on Sunday afternoon is weather permitting, because it’s an outside gig. We’ve been unlucky the last couple of weeks. Soon, it will just be blue skies.

Updates & gig news are always on my FB and Instagram pages, along with a few photos of my dogs!

Happy New Year everyone.

See you at a gig soon…

Martin.

The end of the year…

By Uncategorized

It’s been a great year. Thank you to everyone who has supported me. From coming to gigs, watching my ‘LIVE’ videos to streaming my music. I’ve even had my own chapter in a book!

It’s Xmas time now. Chilly evenings with the fire on at home and too much food with family and friends.

I’m looking forward to my gigs this week. Albufeira is busy for new year. Lots of summer faces, but in winter clothes!

I wish everyone a very happy new year…

The Winter!

By Uncategorized

After a long and excellent summer, the winter is now upon us.

Steps is closed until the end of February/beginning of March, except for a week or so between Xmas & New Year, which is always an excellent time. I’m looking forward to it.

The gigs in Jack’s keep going right through. I love these afternoon gigs. I’m there every Wednesday from 3.

Albufeira Padel Club is a great Sunday afternoon gig, but it’s outside. So we’re totally dependant on the weather, which is normally brilliant, but keep an eye on my FB page just in case.

See you soon…

September!

By Uncategorized

This year, September is starting a few days early.

It’s the nicest time of year to be in Albufeira. It’s hot, but it’s not deadly and all the people here are wonderful and seem to know each other.

It’s a great time for live music.

I’ll be in Steps EVERY NIGHT, Jack’s on Wednesdays & The Padel Club on Sundays.

See you at a gig soon…

Time off…

By Uncategorized

In August, I’ll be taking Mondays & Tuesdays off. It’s good to relax!

Back to it full time in September.

Meanwhile, I’ll be working on my tan.

August

The peak of the summer season. It’s hot & busy. The A/C is saving the day!

The gigs are great. I’m back in Albufeira Padel Club on Sundays. It’s a lovely outside gig to finish off the weekend.

September’s coming soon…

June

The Summer is well and truly in full swing. Busy gigs, hot days and cool nights.

I’m in Steps every night (except Wednesdays) from 10.

Jack’s on Wednesdays, from 4.

Camping Albufeira on Sundays, from 5.30.

My mate Pedro is doing my night off in Steps. He’s an excellent musician, and an old friend.

See you at a gig soon..!

The summer begins…

By Uncategorized

This is my favourite time of year to be in The Algarve.

The weather has changed for the better. The gigs are great, and there’s a feeling around town that the summer is beginning.

I love having music as my job.

I have lots going on this year. All good stuff!

I’ll be doing weekends in Steps from March (starting properly in April), Jack’s in the marina once a week, a few weddings and private functions, and there will be a Sunset Cruise in September.

Here’s to a great year!!

I wish everyone good health and lots of fun.
