2013 Winner Top Ten Will McLean Best New Florida Song Contest "Ed Watson" on Wrinkles In Rhyme is my latest CD. Released in March of 2013, it has 13 original songs. I performed and played most of the instruments on all the songs, with the exception of the Jazz Flute, which is James Walsh, excellent drums on some songs by Paul Evers, and ripping bass by Paul Seusy on "Sad Farewell".

Otherwise, I've been writing songs since high school. I still remember many, and I continue to write new ones. Most of what I write are love songs, some of my favorites were written for family member's weddings.

Of all the songs the "Florida Cowboys", with lyrics by Victor Milt, has gotten more exposure than any other. It was in two award winning documentary films: Cowboys of Florida and Cracker- The Last Cowboys of Florida. Cowboys of Florida won "Directors Choice" at Bluegrass Film Festival 2006 - LaGrange, Kentucky wins Silver at Ole Muddy Film Fest,2006, Wisconsin Cracker won Florida Choice Award in Independent's Film Festival and finalist in Palm Beach International Film Festival.

 CRACKER - The Last Cowboys of Florida. This popular feature has won 14 national awards including two Best Director, two Best Florida Film and a standing ovation at the packed Jacksonville International Film Festival.

I have produced 4 CD's. Debut A La Americana 2013, Wrinkle in Rhyme 2013, All the Good Things I've Got 2005, and Live at Crowely 2007. They are available at www.cdbaby.com and other online stores.

My latest project is doing youtube videos of every song I have written. I am either with my video camera outdoors, or in my music studio. In the studio, I can mix the music through my digital recording equipment and get really great sound on the video. Go to http://www.youtube.com/macmartin7 .
