Love Police is proud to welcome Portland, Oregon songwriter Jeffrey Martin for his first-ever Australian tour this March, bringing his quietly powerful songs and humble storytelling to intimate stages and festivals across the country.
From a small backyard shack in southeast Portland, Martin recorded his new album 'Thank God We Left The Garden' through two cheap microphones, often holding his breath to wait for the sound of a passing truck. What began as simple demos became something else entirely: a record alive with stillness, honesty, and the magic that only arrives when a songwriter lets the world fall away.
Released on Portlands beloved Fluff and Gravy Records, Thank God We Left The Garden is Martins fourth full-length album, following the success of 2017s One Go Around, which No Depression hailed as the poetry of America. Recorded live and alone, the new album is a nod to imperfectionto what happens when you stop chasing perfection and start paying attention.
Across the US and Europe, Jeffrey Martin has quietly earned a reputation as one of the most affecting voices in modern folkhis songs carried by lyrical depth, a storytellers patience,and the kind of intimacy that turns a crowded room into a whisper.
Now, for the first time, Australian audiences will have the chance to experience Jeffrey Martin liveup close and unadorned.
Jeffrey Martin plays intimate stages in Melbourne and Sydney as well as performing at Port Fairy Folk Festival and Blue Mountains MusicFestival.
Dont miss this special moment in folk!
