Once, Martin Sexton was a freewheeling troubadour spreading songwriting joy like wildfire. These days, Sexton says, “I’ve been trying to use my art not just for entertainment but to also carry a message if I can. The message I’ve been honing in on in the last couple of years and last couple of records would be to encourage unity.” Recent EP Fall Like Rain is classically Sexton: heartfelt folk with unmistakable élan.
