Song tales and cocktails with Lesley Pike and Luke James Shaffer.
Welcome to Songs & Spirits — where music meets mixology.

Songs & Spirits with Martha Phillips
Martha's Beverage: Espresso Martini
This week on Songs & Spirits we’re joined by our very own spirit animal, woodland nymph, and all-around magical human: Martha Phillips. She’s a writer-producer, multi-instrumentalist, and vocalist whose calm, peaceful energy somehow pairs perfectly with the caffeine kick of an Espresso Martini.
In this episode, we dive into her musical journey—from teenage angst, Ben Howard inspirations, and learning how to turn feelings into songs, to the collective realization that some of us are simply not built for the 9-to-5 life. Martha lets us peek behind the curtain of her creative world, where as a producer she builds emotive sonic landscapes for artists, screen, and stage.
She’s insightful, funny, and one of those people who makes you feel a little lighter just being around them. We love her, and we’re pretty sure you will too!
