The best kept secret in music

"Hello, next big thing. Do you hear me? Loud and Clear is one of those albums that the moment you hear it you wish you would have started listening 3 months earlier. Brilliant pop music. Self-produced, and quite literally everyone's next favorite artist - you just don't know it yet. Some of the best pop-music I've heard since Butch Walker's Letters." - Jason Tate (Absolute Pun.net) - Absolute Punk.net

Bio
Words Now Heard began as an outlet for singer/songwriter Chris Martin to share his gift of an emotionally charged live show. Now, the music that has become a fixture of South Florida is available nationwide through JMB Records.
In the past year alone, Chris has performed nearly 150 shows nationally. His drive to get his music to the masses earned him slots on 2005's Fed Ex Orange Bowl, Vans Warped Tour, Bamboozle Festival and the Florida Music Festival. For one man and an acoustic guitar, his accomplishments without label or booking support impressed fans and industry players alike. Chris has shared the stage with a neverending list of national acts and his music has inherent qualities of truth and melody, aiding to his ability to win fans from a spectrum of genres.
Now signed to Florida's JMB Records and Distributed by Sony RED, Words Now Heard released the highly anticipated album "Loud and Clear" on October 18th 2005. The quality and energy of this realease quickly generated over 25,000 plays on www.purevolume.com and over 8,000 Friends/Fans on www.myspace.com
"I feel I really captured how my music has grown with me in the past year," says Chris of his new recordings. "It is a combination of the music I love to listen to and perform, and a lyrical depiction of
events in my life."
As Chris grows, his music grows with him, and this latest effort is a snapshot in time of the world of Words Now Heard. For more information including upcoming tour dates, visit www.wordsnowheard.com.
