On this striking album, Daniel John Martin's body and violin become one; his singular voice seems to embrace the notes as would a brook rocking in it's bed. The new compositions regrouped here on Urban Gypsy will acquaint you with Martin's energy and subtlety, his power as well as his restraint. The end result is a moment of pure jazz poetry, with a touch of gypsy soul, bearing a message of hope and of life that you must discover now.
