Andrea Martin is a New York-based singer/songwriter with an impressive talent for penning catchy tunes that have gone on to top the charts. Only one thing--she's typically not singing the songs she writes. Martin started her career in 1995 after helping the R&B artist Monica write her album Before You Walk Out of My Life. Since then, Martin has served as a songwriter for many singers who don't posses a innate knack for composing hit tunes. Occasionally, Martin will hit the stage to perform the characteristic R&B songs she has written and to prove to audiences that she's more than capable of belting out powerful vocals and commanding a concert hall with her strong persona.
