Martin Zellar first appeared on the Twin Cities music scene in the late ’80s as the lead singer and songwriter for the alt-country pioneers, Gear Daddies.
Based in Minneapolis, John Swardson writes songs that bleed through the holes in the soles of his boots. "A songwriter of uncommon emotional detail, depth, and empathy." His catalog includes several records of originals and a wide variety of covers that dart through his own music like Starlings at dusk.
