Martin is the musical brains of the outfit. Hearing Martin play his innovative and energetic guitar-riffs, one wonders if this guy has ever done anything else. In fact he started his career as a piano player, a long time before the thought of picking up a guitar crossed his mind. He plays blindingly on both instruments.

From merely playing other people's songs Martin soon developed his own technique as a song writer. A typical song of his is a hit song, something that'll stick to your mind before you can say: "Play it again!" He has penned many of Toini & the Tomcats' songs, and arranges and coordinates the musical input along with the other members of the group.

Because of his many musical abilites Martin has all through his musical life played in many bands, and he's very experienced and constantly saught after as session musician, with a host of norwegian records to his credit.

As Toini & the Tomcats receive more and more positive input from music circuits both in Norway and abroad, most of Martin's time is spent on writing new material for the band, and travelling all around to play different venues with Scandinavias most up and coming Rockabilly band!
