The last time I went to see Martin Grech he did two nights at the Metro club on Oxford Street, first night acoustic, second night electric. I hadn't seen him acoustic before though I'm a big fan of his, since a certain 'Che' started sending me texts saying 'Martin Grech is the way forward' in 2002! It was one of the best gigs I've ever been to, a most extraordinary experience, in fact at one point I remember thinking that it really didn't get any better than that. He has a most beautiful voice, from the softest most subtle inflections to a full on scream when he's backed by his excellent band. His own music is first and foremost emotional and he's a dynamic live performer.

Check out his website to hear him, there's a download single available there called 'I am Chromosome', not his best work in my opinion but worth a listen. http://martingrech.co.uk/

because he makes me cum.
i'm listening to him now.
in fact, almost spookily, i came to mention him but you beat me to it.
the boy is a frighteningly emotive genius.
+ he has nice nail varnish.
i'll send you some tunes later.

Grech, great surname, maybe you can hit it off at the show, get together and then one day get married, then you'll be Grech also. Reason enough. L&P

set,

if that was last comment was aimed at me,

i'd like to confirm my total heterosexuality right here and now,
and that i have no interest in 'hitting it off' with martin grech. Confused

in fact girls and music are the only things that keep me going.

For a name like Grech, you'd bend it a little, open your mind and welcome a brand new beautiful name!

Well, there are other ways to change your name too... If I desperately wanted to be Tomi Grech (sounds quite ok by the way) I would definitely try all the other ways before marrying Martin Grech. Confused

I have no idea who he is, and on second thought, even though it's a good name it's not really worth changing sexual identity for (for Paul I mean). L&P

Having seen Martin Grech five times now I don't think it's fair to call him pretentious, his humility and sincerity are really evident, particularly at the acoustic gig I saw where he talked to the audience much more. I can see that his 'histrionics' as you call them wouldn't appeal to everyone though!

maybe I'm judging him unfairly - but I first heard him providing the soundtrack to the 'artistic' section of the versace exhibition at the v&a museum with all these clacking grannies disucssing how resplendent or whatever the whole thing was.
