Hit songs Robert Martin has sung and played on have
been heard on the radio since the early
‘70s. The history of Robert Martin's ongoing
career at the helm of MultiMartin Music is
indeed long and storied and weaves in and
out of the very fabric and history of rock
’n’ roll, pop, and jazz, including working
with Hall of Fame inductees and icons who
changed the face of music, like Frank Zappa,
Paul
McCartney, Prince, The Moody Blues, and Etta
James (on tour with the Rolling Stones), to
name a few.
While studying horn at the Curtis Institute,
Robert cut his
teeth as a top call session player at the
legendary Sigma Studios in Philadelphia,
where he played on countless gold records
(see discography for details). He soon added
production and mixing to his arsenal of
skills, doing sessions at the famed Record
Plant Studios in NYC, L.A., Sausalito,
Enterprise Studios in L.A., BBC in London,
and many others, all the while maintaining a
rigorous world touring schedule as a singer
and multi-instrumentalist for top musical
stars.
So in addition to the technical knowledge
available to any student of an audio school,
Robert has the unique advantage of hands-on
learning in the real world—at the
“University of Frank Zappa,” the “Church of
Etta James,” arranging, performing, mixing,
and mastering for the legendary Wilson
Pickett.
With training and experience at such a high
level and broad range of styles, Robert’s
world-class ears became attuned to nuances
of timbre and blend not available in merely
technical school environments. He brings all
of this unique experience to every project,
every mix, and every master.
