Aunt Martha is the creative vessel of New England based songwriter and vocalist Tim Noyes.
The band has taken various shapes since its formation in 2008, all the while being propelled by
the constant writing and touring that has become Noyes’ trademark. 2011 has been their busiest
year yet with over 150 shows played and a five released recordings (3 EPs, 1 full length, and 1
covers album).
The touring brought them all over the US with stops at more than a few well
known music festivals including Bonnaroo and Orlando Calling, along with opening appearances
for the likes of Deer Tick, Blind Pilot and many others. Like the band itself, the music is varied.
Sometimes its quiet and sentimental, stripped down to nothing more than acoustic guitar and
vocals. At other times, particularly on the most recent album Norway, ME, it becomes a lush
wall of sound filled by layered vocal loops, electric guitars, makeshift percussion and
synthesizers. Listen at www.auntmarthaband.com/audio
