Martin Rebelski

A composer and recording artist in his own right, Martin Roman Rebelski has released two critically acclaimed albums, Thanks For Your Thoughts and Stickers on Keys.

He is also the unofficial fourth member of Doves. Rebelski has been playing keyboards with Doves both on record and live since 1999. In 2000, Heavenly Recordings boss Jeff Barrett encouraged Rebelski with his own material. This encouragement resulted in Thanks For Your Thoughts, a beautiful debut album of Eno/Reich -inspired ambient instrumentals released in the UK on Heavenly in 2003.

The following year, Rebelski recorded Stickers on Keys. Rebelski's second album was released on Twisted Nerve when none other than label figurehead Damon Gough (Badly Drawn Boy), so taken with Thanks For Your Thoughts, convinced Martin over a game of pool to become part of the Twisted Nerve family. This made Rebelski the first artist to be signed personally by Gough. Painting on an even larger canvas, Stickers On Keys built on the ideas offered on Rebelski's debut and is a natural progression for the obviously talented composer and musician. The UK press thought so too and Stickers On Keys became an almost instant critical success.
