Known as a rock group with an enigmatic side, MJM's new single ‘Dogs Of War’ has exploded on radio and put this group on the world map.
There is something special happening with MJM, the talented rock group out of Toronto, Canada. A firm believer in the time-honored tradition of composition and careful attention to detail, MJM's work demonstrates how personal and affecting music can be when the right elements come together. This legitimacy is discernible from other angles. They have a deep understanding of the techniques and traditions of the rock genre which is perhaps why the critics had this to say about their award-winning work: ‘MJM's vocal overtones limn this melancholy alt-rocker with an almost palpable sense of distance - an adroit nuance to a highly charismatic cut.’ Reporter Blake Wright recently caught up with this talented group to learn more about their unique story and their plans for the future.
BLAKE: Let's just get this out in the open- What is the craziest thing that has happened to you in your music career? BLAKE: It is often said that great art arises from difficult experience. Is there something in your life experience thus far that you would describe as the ‘catalyst’ or ‘fuel’ for your desire to create music? BLAKE: How would you characterize yourself as an artist/musician? BLAKE: What has your experience been like working with the other people on your team? BLAKE: What do you find most rewarding about being an artist? What do you find most challenging? BLAKE: Describe your best or most memorable performance. BLAKE: What advice would you give to young, aspiring artists out there who are unsure and need guidance? BLAKE: What's next for you as an artist? Is there an album in the works? If so, what can you tell us about it? BLAKE: I look forward to hearing your new work! Thank you for letting us get to know you better as a musician and I wish you the best of luck and continued success. http://www.theakademia.com/artistkit/MJM-DogsOfWar.html |
