press

"A folk-pop sound with an upbeat tempo that could make the sun peek through the storm clouds"
- Hybrid Magazine

"A warm tenor, with catchy tunes, and earnest lyrics... an artist with a knack for writing and performing infectious music."
- All Music Guide

"Ayer’s effort has it all—tight arrangements, excellent musicality and imaginative lyrics. If you’re looking for great music, this is the place indeed."
- Performing Songwriter Magazine

"His songs are cleverly written, light-hearted, and fun to listen to... In a word: Wit."
- Aquarian Weekly

"Breezy singer-songwriter pop... come for the catchy melodies, stay for the minor IV chords."
- Guitar Player Magazine

"This album has that controlled frantic pace, that almost feels like an album exploding from someone’s soul... A wonderful album, with some sparks of sheer creative bliss."
- Indie Launchpad

"He’s got everything working in his favor. Imaginative choruses and pop hooks that eschew pure infectious melodies."
– smother.net

"Part street poet, part armchair philosopher, indie singer/songwriter Chris Ayer will leave you smiling whether you feel like smiling or not. You gotta love this guy... a delightful discovery."
- BuddyHollywood.com

Buying music can also help Haiti!!

The earthquake and its aftermath in Haiti have touched all of our lives. By purchasing music on CD Baby, you can help raise funds towards those affected by the disaster:

Started on Monday, January 25th and continuing for another week, CD Baby will donate $1 from every CD sale through their website, and $1 from every download sale over $8.99 on their site, to the American Red Cross and to Mercy Corps, a Portland-based relief organization with a large presence in Haiti. There are thousands of artists, albums or songs that you can buy on CD Baby. Just try it!

And what is more: I Mark Mo will double any Dollar from those sales of my music! Therefore you actually send $2 to help Haiti with every TRIPLE TRACKS bought. Thanks for your help and for spreading the word!

With a click, you can get to CD Baby from my profile. Thank you.
