Mira Martin-Gray

Mira Martin-Gray has been played on NTS in shows including Fractal Meat On A Spongy Bone, featured first on 26 January 2021. Songs played include Combinations in 3/8, forte (feedback).

Martin-Grey is an improvising musician, producer, and reluctant composer / sound artist / whatever from Toronto. She performs in many collaborative contexts as well as solo, and sometimes uses the moniker tendencyitis (that's tendency-itis).

A multi-instrumentalist, injury and chronic illness led her to find a way to make music accessibly. She has developed a practice of manipulating mixing boards wired in feedback loops, probing the intersections between noise and melody, drone and rhythm, indeterminacy and control. In her work with feedback she's interested in countering notions of desirabilty in our culture, revealing beauty in what's conventionally considered undesirable. She also works with voice, percussion/objects, other electronics and synths, and rarely guitar.

Her work has been reviewed in The Wire, Musicworks, Bandcamp daily, The Quietus, Toneshift, ATTN magazine, and other outlets.

Solo recordings have appeared on Arachnidiscs (Toronto), Bastard Girl Utopia (Detroit), dubbed tapes (London), Full Spectrum (Texas), FLUF (Copenhagen), pan y rosas (Chicago) Personal Records (Montreal), and SM-LL (London). Self releases can be found on bandcamp.

She has also released music in the groups Overleaf with Heidi Chan and Kayla Milmine, 3M with Mark Zurawinski and Mike Lynn, and Quartz Ibex with Kurt Newman and Olivia Shortt.
