Bio

Born in the heart of Texas and raised in rural New York, San Antonio-based Michael "Mijail" Martinez is a singer-songwriter living in blended worlds. Wielding a Spanish guitar, he weaves elements of Americana,Latin folk music and french Louisiana to create unique songs with strong roots. Drawing on his mixed Louisiana-creole and hispanic hertitage; part Texas Troubadour, part New York songwriter, 100% roots music.
Getting his start as a street-performer, in his youth he began to drift around the country and world under an ancient name given to him at birth, "Mijail"-- singing a range of styles including rancheras, Country classics, and old Flamenco songs. He has been spotted on stages, in theaters, cantinas, subway tunnels, street corners, and house shows from NYC to Barcelona, Mexico City to New Orleans
Together with his band— or solo, he performs in English, Spanish, and French, putting on a show as fitting for an intimate listening room as for a dark dance hall. Sweetness and fire abound as he explores love, death, longing, sensuality, and solitude using the tools of a wandering troubadour. His demo EP, “Carnaval Blues en Nueva York” is available on most platforms.
