Royal Enfield has named Jeff Martin, lead singer of Canadian band The Tea Party, as a brand ambassador for the marque.
The Byron Bay resident has been a motorcyclist for many years, and says he can feel truly proud of the tie-up.
"In my career I've been approached by many brands seeking my endorsement, but it wasn't until this opportunity with Royal Enfield was presented to me that I felt I had truly found something I’d be proud to represent," he said.
Martin is now enjoying the countryside in and around Byron Bay aboard a new black Classic 500.
The Marketing Manager for Royal Enfield Australia & NZ, Joshua Pilley, said the partnership works on several levels.
"We are delighted to have Jeff Martin as our new brand ambassador; he is incredibly talented and couldn't be a better fit for our brand," he said.
"Royal Enfield is about pure motorcycling, motivating and inspiring a rider to take a journey and embrace new experiences. We feel that these core ideas also ring true with Martin's own music and live performances, bringing a rich and tangible connection to our Royal Enfield fans.
"It is a great honour to have Martin ride with us."
