Video diary of the recording of Martin's sixth studio album, Reliquary, to be released on 10 July 2012. This video was originally shared exclusively with Martin's Kickstarter backers in late February 2012, and shared elsewhere two weeks later.

A ten-minute "megahits medley" recorded at The Freedom Bar, London, England, 28 June 2011. Martin closed the triple-bill with Chrissi Poland and Alex Berger with an impromptu medley of some of his favorite songs, which people seemed to enjoy a bit. Chrissi, Alex, and legendary tap-dancer Andrew Nemr soon joined in, and everyone went quite happily into the Soho night afterward.

I turned my show at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 1 from March 2011 into a fundraiser to benefit victims of the Japan Earthquake/Tsunami... I said I'd play any song in exchange for a generous donation. Well, this was right about the time that Rebecca Black's "Friday" held the internet hostage for about a month, so of course, someone requested it. They made a mighty generous donation, and I fulfilled their request to the best of my ability. Please don't hold it against me.
