The Most Perfect Day

Nicholas was able to accomplish everything we asked of him and more for our wedding day. We cannot thank you enough for playing our special songs and being flexible with requests. If I could give more stars, I absolutely would.

Martin has most recently appeared as a soloist with the SFCM Orchestra, Mid-Michigan Classical Guitar Society, and Michigan Fingerstyle Guitar Society.

An avid and talented arranger, Martin is continuously creating new arrangements and transcriptions for guitar, and was recently commissioned by the Guitar Foundation of America's Mentorship Program to arrange a piece for a mentee to be published in a compilation of guitar music by BIPOC composers.
