Martin Luther: Daily Bread
One of the best singers/guitarists/songwriters around, Martin Luther (aka Martin Luther McCoy Jr.) has a new album coming out this summer entitled 'Love Is The Hero'. His last studio album came out in 2004, the excellent 'Rebel Soul Music'. A live album was released in 2006: 'Live at Arlene's Grocery'.
If he looks familiar to you: Martin Luther played guitarist/singer Jo-Jo in Julie Taymor's 2007 film Across the Universe.

The collective was founded in 2005 with the release of the self-titled vinyl album Boom Clap Bachelors. It provided the outlet for future collaboration. The music spans from electronica, disco non disco to leftfield, new wave, soul and indie influcences.
