Monica Martin has traveled across the U.S., landing in a handful of cities before settling into her artistry in Los Angeles. One of those stops included a stint in Music City where Martin seemed to seamlessly fit into Nashville’s musical landscape. During this journey, she fronted the Wisconsin-based experimental-folk-pop group PHOX before breaking out as a solo artist. Channeling Hollywood romance with a hint of jazz and psychedelia, Martin tells stories of her past that feel like millennial folklore.

Watch Monica Martin perform “Cruel,” “Pillowcase” and “Go Easy, Kid” live at WNXP’s Sonic Cathedral.
