  • We are honored to present Martin Sexton performing his iconic tune, “Glory Bound,” in a 1990 Volkswagen Syncro Westfalia. Martin Sexton has been performing in his inimitable style for decades, and he’s no stranger to the VW community-he used to drive across the country in his VW Bus. He received the National Academy of Songwriters Artist of the Year Award in 1994, and his discography is enviable. GoWesty has long revered Martin Sexton as quintessential road-tripping music, so we were over the moon to shoot this Westy Session. If you have the opportunity to see him perform live, don’t miss out!

    I was in my early 20's when I discovered this amazing man. In my 40's now and still blown away.

      He's a one of a kind. Seen him live over 10 times. Whenever I'm having a hard time in life, I listen to his music. Love you Marty!

    Saw him when I was young in the 90s and have been a fan ever since. He is one of the few hidden gems in the musical universe

    One of my favs. Played this song many times. I loved going to see him live with my old dear friend John. Brings me back to more innocent times. Now listening from Ireland. Sure do miss America. This makes me very home sick. x

    Someone performed this song at my high school in’99 and I knew I had just heard something special. Tonight, I read the words “home bound” and something went off in my head. I thought, “that amazing song I heard in high school! But it’s not ‘home bound.’ What is it?!” After a frustrating few minutes of the song title on the tip of my brain, the cathartic moment came when the words “glory bound” were unearthed in my mind. After so many years of not hearing this song, I’m finally reunited with it! Thank you Martin Sexton for this song

    I've seen him in Maine (at LL Bean believe it or not), in Boston at (I can't remember the name of the place but I remember he played sugarcoating and I loved it because it called out the bs in the media), but the first time was at the Fillmore in San Francisco and that show is embedded in my head forever. That's when he told us he picked up the falsetto from listening to Tears for Fears. A friend turned me on to The American about a year before that and I didn't listen to anything else for about 3 months. Maybe 4 months. I guess I finally listened to something else when I picked up Wonder Bar. I listened to that for quite a while, too. He's a great artist and an inspiration.

    It's so nice to watch this because I've listened to this wonderful musician since,I believe about 99'or so. I was so excited to see him at Bonnaroo 2010. I'm not sure if he was having a bad night, but he seemed so pissed off and dismissive of his audience. I didn't listen to him for a long time. I appreciate his open heart in this video.
