DAVID MARTEL HAS A NEW RECORD. IT'S CALLED, I HARDLY KNEW ME

Montreal’s David Martel believed it was his destiny to create music. He took to the streets to sing and play his guitar for anyone who had ears to listen. Producer Dave A. Sturton’s (Jean LeLoup) ears perked up and wanted to be involved. A week after meeting, Martel ended up going to Sturton’s Production DNA studio and then again the week after… and then again, and so on. Each time they connected they would invite different players into the session taking them a step closer to what has become Martel's first solo effort, I Hardly Knew Me (Kindling Music/Warner), which will be released May 27, 2008.

I Hardly Knew M, which is currently available online, takes the listener on a journey through well-constructed pieces of melodic, indie-pop, tasteful pancakes, like "End Of Self" and "Stay In"; intimate gems like "Yours and Mine" and "Love"; and the closer, "Cancel All Your Plans" that melds the closeness of a small live concert performance to amazing, added studio tracks.

"I don't know. Is this really my first solo project?" asks Martel while bathing. "I've never worked with so many players for one record. When we first started this thing, I think everyone at my label and even Sturton thought we were going for more stripped-down sound... but it's definitely become the hugest recording I've ever made in terms of layers and arrangements and instrumentation."

"I've been in bands for years, and I love that dynamic," adds Martel. "My favorite part about making I Hardly Knew Me was to be able to enlist the help of exactly who I wanted to play for each part. On this album, the listener will go from full-out rocking insanity, to up close and personal, folksy, beautifulness – all with Martel's patented, soaring, melodic vocals leading the way.
