AS ALWAYS, new cd from the OPM’s concert king MARTIN NIEVERA now is now available at O Music and Odyssey Music and video outlets nationwide

Martin Nievera has established a career as one of the premiere soul crooners of OPM’s last three decades and has survived and prospered despite the passage of time and changes in popular musical trends. For the latest offering, AS ALWAYS—new cd from the concert king—will again prove that his here to stay and still solidly set in one of OPM’s most sought-after artists. The new cd AS ALWAYS is released by Polyeast Records and is now available at O Music and Odyssey Music and video outlets nationwide.

Nievera’s album is filled with what would today be classified as revivals, covering a wide range of styles and adding blues-pop and 80's to 90’s to his favoured ballads and jazz. First single and one of the best from this latest offering is Nievera’s version of YOU’RE ALL I NEED (an original from the 80s band/hitmaker, White Lion) which he introduces the rock ballad into his own sweet flavour to sustain his power on stage, award-winning performances, undeniably chart-topping releases and thousands of radio plays.

While Martin remains to be an artist who pushes songs that are immediately recognizable to any generation of listener and has a unique ability to put a modern spin on standards while remaining remarkably faithful to them, this CD promises cover tunes that will drive you down to memory lane. To these ends, his duet with impeccable talented artist Kyla on James Ingram’s HOW DO YOU KEEP THE MUSIC PLAYING becomes one of the album’s highlight where concert-king-meets-R&B-princess production was done artfully crafted and devastatingly moving collaboration.  

AS ALWAYS cd boasts 15-track collection of your most favourite loves songs intertwined with Nievera’s take on his soothingly fresh rendition of MILES AWAY (Colin Blunstone) to EVERYTIME YOU GO AWAY (Paul Young); Nievera’s remake of Billy Joel’s most memorable hit HONESTY became more haunting; ONE HUNDRED WAYS (James Ingram) with guitar hooks romancing Martin’s vocals; the infectious beat of IF YOU LEAVE ME NOW (Chicago); soulful rendition of Michael Jackson’s ONE DAY IN YOUR LIFE; a cover of another rock ballad FIXIN’ A BROKEN HEART of Indecent Obsession; LIVING INSIDE MYSELF (Gino Vanelli) sways to alluringly sweet cover; MORE THAN YOU EVER KNOW (Michael Ruff) with Martin’s rendition from the heart and other stylistically adventurous versions of songs by Kenny Rogers, Air Supply, Billy Preston and Jim Brickman.

Melding the contemporary OPM ballads in ways only he can, Martin Nievera has again created another collection that we surely prove his uncanny ability to nail each track with his signature style and making it his own.

Following up on his Platinum Record and all-covers album FOR ALWAYS which was released in 2009,  AS ALWAYS again boasts the most collected songs for all time showcasing Nievera's incredibly smooth vocals. Martin’s record already gained success in recent years with EMI Philippines and Polyeast Records with albums that hit the top and singles that have stayed since his debut in the 80s.
