Colorado tour plans have just been announced by LadyLake Entertainment and the Envision Indie Coalition for singer/songwriter sensation David Martinez of Corpus Christi, one of the most in-demand musicians in South Texas. David is currently exploding on the Texas music scene with his 67 date summer tour sponsored by the Texas Select Beverage Company, recently performing shows at Rockit’s Whiskey Bar and Saloon and at the acclaimed Executive Surf Club. For the uninitiated, David’s music is a soulful refreshing mix of Jack Johnson’s laid back lyrics stirred into a glass of Lenny Kravitz funk. To add to the growing industry buzz about David, he has been nominated for Best Male Vocalist and Song of the Year (I’m Alright”) in the 2018 KICMA Country Indie Awards 2018.
This season, David launched the independent music series at the grand opening of the Aloft Hotel Corpus Christi, and additionally was featured in an exciting evening of music and art, showcasing his signature style along with the visual artwork of noted local artist Louis Albert Garcia. A portrait of David on stage was painted by Louis and is on prominent display at the luxurious new hotel. In addition to showcasing regularly at Aloft, David has several local residencies at area hot spots including running the new music series ‘Live Music Fridays’ at Crawdaddy’s Downtown, along with regular appearances at Mesquite St. Pizza and Pasta Company, a mecca for touring comedic acts.
A SXSW veteran, David has shared the stage with such musical greats as Ian Moore, Vallejo, Billy Joe Shaver, Johnny Rodriguez, and the Statesboro Revue. David and his band have played at these popular area venues in New Braunfels, San Antonio, Austin and on tour:
House of Rock, Executive Surf Club, Cafe Calypso, Vino Mio, The Exchange CC, Riley’s, Mesquite Comedy Club, Gator’s, Vernon’s BBQ, The Nest, Port Royal, South Texas Icehouse, Brewster’s, TGIFridays, Boathouse, Iron Horse, Holiday Inn, Pier 99, Landry’s, Schlitterbahn, Oyster House, Lucky Lounge, Tapology, Lazy Beach, Izzy’s, Red Shed, Billie Jean’s, Bella Luna, Sand Bar, Surf Club, Twisted Murphy’s, American Bank Center, Rattle Inn, Eddie’s Attic, World Cafe Live, Yankee Homecoming, Roxy and Duke’s, Zakk’s Coffeehouse, Cafe Atlantique, Two Boots CT, The Space CT, and Nourish Restaurant Boston.

Marina Arts is a big supporter of musicians in the local South Texas scene, and David frequently performs at their First Friday Arts Walk and other civic events including the Bay Jammin’ Concert and Cinema Series at Cole Park, where he will be performing this August. David has also appeared at the CCIA Music Series at the Corpus Christi International Airport.
A founding member of Corpus Christi Songwriters, David will also be performing acoustic sets as part of his ‘Summer Wine Hop’ in Texas Wine Country, having been warmly received at Fiesta Winery 290 recently. Songwriting is underway for a new recording project in the works for the band later this year, produced by a soon to be publicized Texas studio in an organic, session-like atmosphere.
Airing on radio coast to coast and internationally, David’s music has been heard regionally on C101 Rocks ‘Area 101’ with DJ Monte Montana, on 106.5 The Shark, on 94.7 Jalapeno Country, Radio Katy, on KPFT and KETR, on Texas Select Radio, and on AM 1670 Dewberry Jam Community Radio in San Antonio.
