Clint Martin has country in his soul and it shows through his music. Clint writes songs that are true and cuts straight to the core. Growing up on a beef cattle ranch in south central Texas, Clint realized what hard work was and sticks to his roots. Clint began listening to Texas music, growing up around famous places like Gruene Hall and Schroeder Hall.
