Let’s talk about side players, women in music, making space for the next generation.
One of the busiest musicians in the business, Siobhan Martin is an in-demand, versatile and commanding pianist working as a full-time freelance musician. She’s part of a number of projects we work with at VOX. A founding member of The Brood, Siobhan’s current roster includes supporting Mat Hughes, Mo Kenney, Nicole Ariana, Leanne Hoffman, and Rankin MacInnis and the Broken Reeds, in the Grateful Dead tribute band Wharf Rats, and with the 1980s party outfit Maximum Overdrive. In 2025, Siobhan was awarded Musician of the Year at the Music Nova Scotia awards.
Siobhan is also a composer who composes scores for feature films. She has scored for the feature film Compulsus, and her work on the acclaimed feature film Lakeview was awarded Best Original Score at the Atlantic International Film Festival in 2024. When not on the road, she teaches piano part-time for the Music Arts program at NSCC and at Long & McQuade.
Hailing from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, when not playing shows, she’s attending them as an ardent fan and loyal supporter. She currently serves as a board member of Music Nova Scotia and the industry is lucky to have her.
