“If you’re looking for elegant sorrow, for compelling and gracious misery, for poetic sadness, then Jeffrey Martin is the musician you need.” So says the today’s review at Folk Alley.  It’s not an uplifting album, at least on the surface. The songs are “dark and sad and real. And that – that realness – that’s what’ll make you want to listen to the next story. And the next. And the next.”

After Jeffrey Martin released 2014’s Dogs In The Daylight, the Portland Mercury posited that he “might be the best songwriter in Portland.” No Depression called the record “as close to a masterpiece as a folk album from an emerging singer-songwriter can get.” One Go Around is the long-awaited follow-up to that record.

There’s a quiet dignity to the 12 new tracks on One Go Around, but a kind of quiet desperation as well. With subjects ranging from the shocking story of William Burroughs’ casual murder of his wife during a drunken party, to themes of love found and lost, the stories hit hard, because we know we may not be far off from them ourselves in this time of uncertainty.

The record is available now on LP, CD and digital formats, at the Fluff and Gravy Store, Bandcamp, Spotify, iTunes and Amazon.

In addition to black vinyl there is a Limited Edition run on Red vinyl, hand-numbered to 123.

The headline at Impose Magazine today sums up Jeffrey Martin’s latest in just three words… “Very Powerful Music”.  The review goes on to go through a few tracks a bit more in depth, including “What We’re Marching Toward”, which is referred to as Martin’s “Pete Seeger moment”.
