Bio
Martin Hagfors, a brilliant tunesmith & musician paints his masterpiece with the release of I Like You. I Like You is his second album with arranger/producer Lars Horntveth of Jaga Jazzist fame. Considered to be one of Scandinavia’s leading folk-rock artists, Martins’ unique blend of acoustic psychedelia places him in solidly in the same camp as Brian Wilson, Sufjan Stevens, Colin Blunstone and Beck. Martin, a politically and socially active bloke is often likened to a modern day Woody Guth...
Press
“Martin Hagfors - Men and Flies (CD, ME, Pop)
Originally from Boston, Massachusetts, Martin Hagfors now resides in Norway. Probably a very smart move on Martin's part...because he has already been nominated for a Grammy in Norway. Readers should note that based on the type and style of music Hagfors writes he would never ever be nominated for a Grammy here in the United States because his music isn't the kind of generic schmaltzy crap that sells in America. Men and Flies is Martin's solo full-length debut album...and it's chock full of smart, well-arranged pop tunes. Plus the guy has a great voice. Nine pop tracks here that are bound to please even the most jaded pop fans. Our favorite tracks include "Appetite," "Scarlet," "Tattooed On My Eyes," and "Married Man."”
