2019 SN - Kyle Martin

Whoever said you can’t serve two masters, never met Kyle Martin. For quite a while now he has billed himself as the original rock n' roll cowboy… and there’s a reason for that. On one hand you have the honkytonk side. On the other hand, you have the rock n' roll side. Kyle now carves a musical path all his own playing a sub genre he created called "Westrock," which he defines as "highly amplified western themed honkytonk style music played in a hard rock format with a heavy beat." The biggest weapons in Kyle’s arsenal have always been his vocals, guitar playing and songwriting. Over the last few years he’s been lucky enough to get to play in a lot of different places; The New Mexico music scene; Oklahoma City’s “Bricktown;" Memphis' Beale Street; The Las Vegas Strip; Broadway Nashville; and New York City. He was also voted "Best Of" Musician and Male Vocalist by a 2014 "Albuquerque the Magazine" readers choice poll and more recently "Best Composer" by "The Weekly Alibi" (Mar 2017/’Alien Cowboy’). He has also opened for such acts as Lonestar, Josh Gracin, Drew Baldridge, Casey Donahue, Roger Creager, Cody Canada, Devon Allman, Jackie Lee and many others.
