AN OPEN LETTER

Dearest Polaris Judge, I bow before you:

My name is Ryan Granville-Martin. I'm a Canadian musician.

I recently released a self-produced record, Mouthparts and Wings.

“8/10... eclectic and highly accomplished... Let's hope for more from this formidable talent.” Kerry Doole – Exclaim Magazine

“Equal parts polish and punch. This is ambitious songwriting at its best. With Mouthparts and Wings Ryan Granville-Martin has taken a wild leap and landed gracefully on his feet." Laurie Brown – CBC, The Signal

It's eclectic and unique - featuring a different lead vocalist on each tune. Singers includes Martin Tielli, Gavin Gardiner (of Polaris nominated The Wooden Sky), Daniela Gesundheit (Arts & Crafts' Snowblink), Ron Sexsmith, and a host of others. It's quite a CANCON party!

Here's a streaming link: soundcloud.com/ryangranvillemartin/sets/mouthparts-and-wings

More info, including extensive press, can be found here: www.ryangranvillemartin.com/mouthparts.html

I won't presume to know your taste, but I thought it might interest you as it is definitely breaking new ground in format and scope of variety. Top tracks I would suggest are Welcome Honey (ft. Daniela Gesundheit) and The Prisoner (ft. Martin Tielli), and Jackhammer Burden (sung by yours truly), though again, each track is widely different from the previous.

Thanks.

Ry GM
