Career

[edit]

Many of Martin Newbold's song lyrics originate from his poetry. His music often explores themes of social justice, human rights, and personal reflection. On January 29, 2025, he released "God’s Children Are Not for Sale – Final," which reflects his advocacy against child exploitation and is available as a music score video on YouTube and published on MuseScore.

In 2024 and 2025, several music videos were produced for Newbold's other songs based on his poems, including:

  • "Afar" (December 31, 2024)
  • "Absent Love" (January 4, 2025)
  • "A Father’s Plea" (January 5, 2025)[1]
  • "For Fifty Days or More" (January 8, 2025)
  • "Nothing Else Matters" (January 3, 2025)
  • "Precious Moments" (January 5, 2025)
  • "The Stealing of Emily" (January 6, 2025)
  • "Upset in a Corner" (January 4, 2025)[2][3]

Proposed dramatical works

[edit]

Newbold's songs and videos were written in relation to a three-part drama script he composed that explores themes of child welfare, judicial transparency, and human rights, inspired by real events and legal issues. It is intended for a general audience but particularly resonates with those interested in social justice and legal reform.

The script's plot involves a group of wealthy men in America who secretly negotiate a deal in which they fund social care programs in exchange for access to vulnerable children, who are abducted and trafficked. The narrative spans multiple countries, exposing the corruption within governments, social services, and legal systems that enable such crimes to continue unchecked.

ITV has provided an email address and is currently considering the topics covered in the script. Amazon Prime has yet to respond, and other networks may be approached for potential production.
