Amy Martin’s Day of Reckoning

By Kirk Siegler, 10-27-05

This week's featured local musician on New West is Amy Martin. Amy hails from Iowa and has called the Garden City home since 2000. Her songs blend traditional and original folk with social activism.

Amy sent us a single from her latest release, Deliverance. Click here to listen to Day of Reckoning.

Keep checking back to New West’s Missoula page for more music by local artists. And if you’re a local musician or in a local band, and would like to offer a sample of your work to the New West community drop us a line at courtney@newwest.net.

Update: Amy's now a 2005 Grammy nominee. Her album "Deliverance" has been nominated for Best Contemporary Folk Album. Granted, she's competing against the likes of John Prine and Joan Baez (as well as 161 other artists), but it's a much-deserved distinction nonetheless.

Fans of Montana music should be sure to check out my show "Montana Muse," recently available through a partnership with MusEco Media and New West. You can find it under Missoula Intelligencer on the left column of this page. Thanks to Kirk and New West for helping me get the Montana music out to more people!
