"Martine’s latest album, No Detour, is a labor of love that powerfully encapsulates her deep-seated affection for the genre. Martine’s voice is spellbindingly versatile, easily transitioning from one tone to the next; you get the sense that Martine means every line that she is singing. Martine is in top form on “No Detour,” but she refuses to become complacent. “I am continuously studying the music and great singers who have done it so long ago when they were the real originals,” Martine explained. “I am working on staying in the zone and being one with the musicians and the music.”
