Details:
I am a composer, pianist, vocalist, writer and inventor, living and working in the Monterey Bay area of Central California. My music is inspired by the serenity of the Monterey Bay Sanctuary, the rhythms of the tides and the sounds of nature.

As a twenty-five year cancer survivor, I have learned to live everyday to the fullest. Writing original musical compositions enables me to share my peace of mind and the spirt of life.

I hope you enjoy the music.


Sincerely,
Martin Headman
