History

J.C. Martin started Black Angel with band members, Tina Stefens, Ernie and Cory Orosco, in 1999 with Audrey (Mrs. Ike) Turner and Ronnie Turner, son of Ike and Tina Turner, also in the original lineup. Since that time, Black Angel has played all the major L.A. clubs, including The Roxy, B.B. King’s Blues Club, Paladino’s, The Gig, S.I.R., and The Coach House in San Juan Capistrano.

The band has recorded seven full-length albums and three EPs. J.C. Martin produces, sings, plays guitar, and owns all the rights to Black Angel, including all the master recordings. The latest album, O’ San Francisco, featured former Johnny Cash, Stevie Nicks and Bonnie Raitt drummer, Danny Darling, and Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash’s granddaughter, Tiffany Lowe on back-up vocals. Tiffany is the daughter of country singer Carlene Carter and British rocker Nick Lowe.
