Martin & The New Songrise write, co-write and share songs shaped by the present - but we stand on a legacy of emancipatory songs and voices of freedom and social justice. We are less concerned with “hits” and more concerned with what may be “striking."

A touchstone for Martin & The New Songrise is singer and songwriter Martin Høybye’s PhD work on personal and collaborative songwriting.

A team of alternating musicians who know how to work “on the song's own terms” help us carry the TNS vision forward.
