   About martin gallop
1962 born in Toronto Grace Hospital. 1969 my family moved 80 miles north-east to a small town called Peterborough. 1970 traded Ktel greatest hits record for copy of Abbey Road. 1974 age 12 wrote first heartbreak song after getting dumped by mindy - a few weeks later she started dating a 17 year old with a beard. more songs followed. 1982 played in hippie acoustic guitar duo ‚Bruce Street’ with Michael Bell. went out to the west coast playing bars and street corners. met a German guru guy on Vancouver Island who also had a beard. 1983 travelled to Europe. more street singing and bar gigs..... wound up on Crete (please see song: 'A strange Place Called Home'). went on to Oldenburg Germany to visit the guru guy. found him lovesick and not as enlightened as i'd remembered... stayed around anyway. 1985 took a job running lights and sound for a traveling theatre group called 'the Wheelers'. toured with them for seven years all over Germany, Holland, Austria and Switzerland, writing and performing music and playing minor acting rolls. 1988 wrote my best song to date called 'my mother plays the bass' with my mother on bass. 1991 became a dad. 1992 left the Wheelers and formed a band called the Bogus Brothers with Canadian school friend Tim Hollingsworth. 1993 released first album 'Grip on Reality' on Wonderland Records. An adventurous outing among the realms of folk and experimental music. 1995 went to Berlin to write and perform music for Variete theatre, the Chamaleon. 1996 released second Bogus Bothers album 'Bogus Survivor' on q-tip music. 1999 Bogus Brothers disbanded. 2000 entered the Canadian National Song-writing Contest and won first prize. with a pile of prize money and some attention from the Canadian music industry decided to make another record. 2001 recorded the rest of the record in Canada and Germany. 2002 released songwriter-guitar-pop album 'How Much is the World?' on Ulftone Records. 2002/03 toured the album through Germany. even performed on the Ray Cokes arte show 'Music Planet tonight'. 2003 prize money and publishing advance ran out, record company was strapped for cash and i was taking forever to record my next album.... while working on next album, jobbed as a model (mostly as the banker type... greyish hair.. suit etc...) and taught company managers English. 2006 finishing latest album 'A Strange Place Called Home' my best work yet i hope. and staying alive till album comes out.... 2007. album due for release in november on EMI music. On tour in Germany as special guest for Annett Louisan show. Tour begins December 1st.

Out of the shadows of the night
the PHOENIX rises from the ashes of the past
to stretch his wings and glide across
vast lands no soul has ever seen or known
