Singer-Songwriter/Producer Darius Martin Drops “Roll It”
Los Angeles based singer-songwriter and producer Darius Martin pioneers expansive alt R&B music complete with pop-laced hooks and island-drenched soundscapes. Writing about the beauty and struggles found in life, Martin aims to connect with his listeners on a deep level, pouring his own emotions and autobiographical experiences into every release.
Darius spent his childhood in Alamogordo, New Mexico where he took influence from the vastness of the desert. Relocating to Southern California in high school, Darius was an active and serious athlete in his teenage years. Fate had a different plan though, and when a serious illness sidelined Martin, he began channeling his time into discovering his passion for music. Influenced by the likes of Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson and Marvin Gaye, Martin began experimenting with different sounds and genres aiming to achieve a sound that is as fresh as it is timeless. The songwriter attended the prestigious Los Angeles Film Institute where he graduated in 2020. His college experience further reinforced his passion and ambition to pursue a career in music. Equipped with the skills developed during his time at the LA Film Institute, he began recording music professionally.
In 2023, Darius continued to expand his sonic palette and artistry with inventive new releases, captivating a rapidly growing fanbase of avid listeners with his dynamic fusion of genres and masterful storytelling. Darius takes inspiration from real life experiences and contrasting perspectives to highlight “the good, bad, and in between. I want real life emotions and feelings to be poured out into my music.”
Darius’s new single, "Roll It", features an irresistible chorus and lush, hypnotic soundscapes that capture intense desire and chemistry between two people. With every beat, the listener falls deeper into an intoxicating journey of rhythm, movement, and melody.
