With a voice that soothes and lyrics that stir the soul, Jodi Martin continues to inspire with every note - a true storyteller whose music is as honest and moving as the life behind it.

Jodi Martin’s music is a heartfelt journey shaped by love, resilience, and family. Raised on a grain farm in South Australia, she began writing songs at just three years old, and that early spark has grown into a lifelong fire. With seven critically acclaimed albums, an ARIA award, and collaborations with icons like Kasey Chambers, Arlo Guthrie, and Grammy-winner Steve Leslie, Jodi has carved a powerful presence in the worlds of country, folk, and Americana music.

Time away from the stage spend with her family on the farm deepened her connection to her roots, bringing a raw emotional depth to her songwriting. Her recent singles, 'Country Mile,' 'Tommy the Toyota' and 'Good Race You Have Run' struck a chord on Australian radio joining some of her earlier releases of 'Saltwater in my Hair,' 'Diesel' and 'Never Settle,' resonating with fans old and new. Jodi’s performances offer more than just music - they're an experience of authenticity, connection, and the unshakable spirit of a woman who has never let go of her truth.
