Shaun Martin
Miami’s GroundUp Music Festival wrapped last weekend, and Sharyn Martin is sure to bring the good vibes to this listening room set. At GroundUp, the six-time Grammy-winning Snarky Puppy pianist collaborated with local high school students to record an original jazz album.

Martin, a Dallas native who recently collaborated with Tampa Bay's own John O'Leary III, will likely tell stories about the experience, but mostly stick to the rhythm that’s earned him stints on the road with God’s Property and Kirk Franklin—where he’s the music director—plus The Weeknd, Erykah Badu and Chaka Khan.

Tickets to see Shaun Martin play The Attic at Rock Brothers Brewing in Ybor City on Friday, Feb. 10 are still available and start at $25.
