AboutAn experienced composer, songwriter, conductor, multi-instrumentalist and producer, Marty loves the joy-giving power of musical storytelling. As a singer/songwriter he has worked with Grammy winners Justin Vernon (Bon Iver), Kevin Bowe (Johnny Lang, Etta James) and has been a finalist in the Great American Song Contest (2013). As a film composer Marty has written the scores to short films 'The Cucaranchula' (2014) and 'The Sonatina' (2015), both of which were screened at the Cannes Film Festival. A lifelong fan of musical theatre, he wrote/directed/starred in 'Fireflower', a musical comedy for the 2014 MN Fringe Festival (the first live musical to feature an 8bit underscore).
Along with partners Patrick Boland and Mark Zbikowski, Marty co-founded the recording studio & record label Honeytone Music, where he continues to produce & record a diverse array of artists and bands. He is a frequent contributor to the Super Marcato Bros Videogame Music podcast (hosted by brothers Karl & Will) and has been a repeat panelist at MAGFest in Washington, D.C. presenting on the history of Videogame music. In 2016 he participated in the Hollywood Music Workshop in Vienna, studying under composer/orchestrator Conrad Pope (My Week With Marilyn, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone) and composer Joe Kraemer (Mission Impossible 5, Jack Reacher). Marty composes for Evolution Media, Cinephonix and In The Groove music libraries. He continues to search for the next great undiscovered melody and hopes for a peaceful world bridged together by music. |
