Send "Jeff Martin" Ringtones to your Cell 
Jeff Martin was raised in Windsor, Ontario and started playing the guitar at age 8. He formed his first band at age 11 and decided,
then and there, that this is what he wanted to do with his life.
In high school he was challenged by an older student to learn a
blues-inspired Led Zeppelin song which inspired his father, a
blues fan, to turned him on to the blues standards. Jeff caught
on quickly and could frequently be found jamming with
professional bands from the Windsor Detroit area while still
in his teens. During his teens he was also given a copy
of The Beatles' Sergeant Pepper's album and his imagination
was captured by the instrumentation of Within You Without You.
Jeff developed a fascination with eastern tunings and instruments,
a preoccupation he later indulged with great success as a member
of the seminal Canadian band, The Tea Party. Jeff is also a producer.
In addition to producing or co-producing all of The Tea Party's
albums he has worked with artists such as Tenth Planet and
Hundred Mile House and has recorded with David Usher,
Conjure One and Todd Kerns.
