  • World renowned musician Martin Sexton marinates the audience with original songs and gives a positive tribute to friends and family during his
    performance at TEDxBigSky. In 2018, American singer-songwriter Martin Sexton extends touring in support of his ninth studio release Mixtape of the Open Road. Syracuse native Sexton got his start singing in the streets and subways of Boston in the early 90’s.
    Still fiercely independent and headlining venues from The Fillmore to Carnegie Hall, he has influenced a generation of contemporary artists. His songs have appeared in television series such as Scrubs, Parenthood, Masters of Sex and in numerous films, though it’s his incendiary live show, honest lyrics, and vocal prowess that keep fans coming back for more. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    I’m here after seeing Marty’s show in Red Bank, NJ last night. Been a fan since about 2003 when I heard John Mayer cite him as an influence. Seen him several times and absolutely blows me away every time. The soul, power, dynamics from his voice, following with the virtuoso guitar playing is jaw dropping. I’ll be a fan for life.

    Martin, so happy to find you here on UA-cam!
    When I lived in Boston in the late 80's, my friend Robert Elliott from Limerick told me about you and insisted we go hear you (at the Purple Shamrock?). What a night of incredible music. I moved back to Nova Scotia but actually contacted you and received two of your cassette tapes in the mail from you. I wore them out.
    What talent, what a nice guy. Hope life is treating you well.

    one of my UA-cam buddies said that I remind them of Martin Sexton, but I had never even heard of Martin. I came to this video to see what they meant...and glad I did! I would love to jam or write a tune with you one day, Martin!! Hit me up if you can see this! Love you, dude. 🐰❤️🙏🎸🎶🤝✌️

    God bless you Martin. I’m terribly sorry to hear about your mother, what an amazing thing you and your family did for her by all being around during the moment of her passing. That moment will reverberate with her wherever she decided to go after her time on Earth, she certainly has an over abundance of things to look down upon with pride and joy. Thank you for sharing

    Monster talent but often reinterpreting his best songs leaves the audience in limbo slightly.

      When a live performance sounds like the CD/Album, The mask of the untalented lays there. Martin never sings the same song 2x, always a little difference, and usually him and his Godin with no net are
      the tools of the show.
