Martin Lund: Buy

What this cd is really about is saving this precious place called Turtleback Mountain from development here on Orcas Island, my home where I compose and perform this music that brings out the honest reasons as to why I do what I do.

Each piece in this CD represent a place or feeling that I experience musically about Turtleback Mountain. Every morning I awake and look out my window and it is right in front of me. I am grateful.

I like what Mary Ann Dorward had to say about this CD:
"Your music is so calming and stunningly serene. Everyone around me within earshot is calmed, even my normally hyper dog Biscuit The Wonder Pup. Now that is nothing short of a miracle I tell you! I had it on during dinner and my 14 year old son said,"Mom this is really beautiful. I feel like I am trapped in the climax of a tear jerking chick flick but that's OK.I like it." (thought you'd get a kick out of that comment?!) My daugher who is 17 started harmonizing with your music almost immediately, humming and becoming a creative collaborator. I thought that was interesting as it was precisely my impulse as I lay on the couch reading or in my car driving along."

Laid back and reflective Christmas songs with the character of the San Juan Islands at heart; if you've ever been here, you know what I mean.

As Lawrence Welk said, It's just the boys having a little bit of fun!"This particular album was done on a Saturday afternoon by myself and some of the most gifted musicians that I know and perhaps others in LA know as well. It is live and it is eclectic which means don't just listen to one track.
It was such a joy to play live with Alex Acuna, Mike Miller, Tim Landers, Mitch Forman, Larry Cohn, Art Rodriguez, wild man Ray Pizzi (jazz bassoonist/saxist) and Moqui Lund in a spontaneous setting. As the musician's union bumper sticker says, "live music is best."
