   About grant olsen

"Je peux pas vous expliquer, ces chansons ont qq chose, un petit qq chose en + qui le différencie nettement de la pléthore de songwriters lo-folk actuels, sa musique me touche profondément. Et pour tout vous dire, je l'écoute très souvent, très très très souvent, c'est une musique qui me relaxe...Des morceaux comme 'Low Low' à la petite mélodie de guitare entêtante et balladeuse, 'Death of the Ball Turret Gunner' avec ses harmonies à 2 voix douces & sublimes comme du Simon & Garfunkel ou le magnifique 'Waterland', morceau poignant et parfait dans sa ligne de guitare, sont des petits bijoux de songwriting pour moi, à l'architecture solide, structurée...Grant a du talent, un immense talent."

Dear Friends.

I am about half way done with my latest update to my page. Come take a peek and listen to the first song from my up and comming cd. Right now the release date is in December.

A new feature I have added is you can now post your favorite song from my playlist to your profile.

My theme is fall, with the songs having a since of wanderlust.
I hope that you enjoy my pictures and songs, and you will return to my page when it's completed.

I am currently recording the other five songs and putting together the final touches.

I hope you will take the time to listen, look at my pics and post a comment (please, please, please) about your favorite song from my playlist.

Have a terrific fall, and take care
Thanks,
Jeff Moats

Grant!!!!  I didn't know you were on myspace....yay.....yeah, and those pictures are what, i'd say 1/100 of the total....seriously we had so so many.  figured i shouldn't put them all up though. =) you know what picture i want though?  that one of all of us caught in the rain...you should probably send it to me.  how is your summer going?  it is kinda weird being back and i feel like i am in limbo, i don't start work till sept 10th. i am actually not going back to MT, but staying here in the bay. ah, plans change. i hope you are well and can't wait to hear from you, ivy

Thanks for your welcome, Grant. I enjoy your thoughtful, crafted material. I share some of your influences and was lucky enough to catch Sam Beam on his UK tour last year. All the best.

Grant, do you want to play at the Sego Festival? I'd like it if you did but I know you're picky.. :) Anyway the musician applications are due in a week, so if you want to, go to segofestival. org and click on bands.
Ok bye!
