Some of the notable guest drummers and musicians on his solo recordings include Doug Corella of the Verve Pipe, Steve Gillis (formerly of the rock group Filter) and Andy Kubiszewski of Stabbing Westward and Exotic Birds. He has also co-produced some of his songs with Brit Awards-nominated record producer, Ed Buller (Suede, Pulp, etc.) In 2004, Martino independently released multiple singles on the Adult Album Alternative radio format in the United States, where he gained enough airplay to be named the "Artist of the Month" for the entire AAA radio format in March 2004.〔()〕 Between 2005-2006, Martino won or placed as a finalist in several prominent songwriting competitions in the United States, including the Billboard (Magazine) songwriting contest and Vh1's "Song of The Year Contest.〔 " In 2007, Martino was part of a very short-lived band called "The Martino Conspiracy" that briefly toured throughout 2007 and early 2008. Prior to disbanding, the band achieved national radio airplay on the Hot AC radio format, with one released single titled "Just Don't Know" charting on the top 100 airplay chart in February 2007.
