Martin Sexton, called by Billboard “a vocalist of amazing proficiency and sensual conviction,” has completed a holiday album titled Camp Holiday, which he recorded in a cabin deep within the Adirondack Mountains.

You could almost smell the wood smoke as songs like ”Blue Christmas” fill the room. Unencumbered by the distractions of big production, the simplicity allows this one-man band to shine like the brightest bulb on the tree using his body as a drum, his voice like a trumpet and his spaghetti strainer as percussion.

Sexton, a Massachusetts-based troubadour who’s no stranger to the road, has been widely hailed by critics. The Wall Street Journal called him “an impassioned performer who can bring women and men to tears when they see him live.” The New York Times said “he can turn an ordinary song into a jazzy showcase” and ""his unpretentious heartiness helps him focus on every soul singer's goal: to amplify the sound of the ordinary heart.” And Acoustic Guitar called him “not just a good singer, songwriter and musician. He’s a musical adventurer and innovator” and cited his “mad scientist approach.”
