“Her tunesmithing is sophisticated, purposeful and defies categorization.”
— New York Music Daily
“I met Martina Fiserova a few years ago & immediately recognized a kindred spirit who was ready to embrace life & music in NY City. Since that time, she has managed to create her own singing & guitar style, combining influences, from Europe to the US. Her passion for composing, producing, playing all kinds of guitars, & combining Jazz, Pop, & Acoustic music has created a style that’s all her own..and she channels all of this through her original singing & irresistible personality..
Check out Martina Fiserova ... Well worth the listen!!”
— Lee Ritenour

“Martina’s singing carries with it an immediacy and conscience reminiscent of Joni Mitchell but with a core strength and projection made for these times. Likewise, her guitar playing is marked by technical excellence and enough of a variety in performance practice that the set never grew old. This young lady’s engrossing music and lyrics are imbued with a certain authenticity, a modest love of the craft, and genuine enjoyment of the stage.”
