IN FERVOR is the name for the creative output of NYC-born musician/songwriter
Richard Martin. Richard first started performing as In Fervor in 2002, having
played in countless bands prior to that, both as a drummer and a guitarist/singer. In Fervor’s first release was the Anatomy Of A Memory EP. It received rave reviews:
“The songs are visceral and as intelligent as it gets.”
– Smother
“…they’ve truly managed to dovetail intelligent writing and real of-the-earth rock’n’roll.”
– CD Reviews.com
After touring for Anatomy, Richard started recording Onward Downward, a record that took a year and a half to make. Recorded in Richard’s all-analog Brooklyn studio, the 13-song, 65- minute album is a work of epic proportions.
Electric guitars, bass, drums, acoustic guitars, cellos, upright bass, lap steel, motorcycle, smashed instruments, cat’s meows, whispering crowds, searing vocals.
Wrap all of that around beautiful songwriting and you get an album that’s worth its
weight in gold.
“…an impressive record.”
– East Coast Romper
“In Fervor layers thick indie rock creed with giant hooks and
spellbinding catchiness.”
– Smother
Currently touring and promoting for Onward Downward, Richard promises a new release by the end of 2008. We’re anxiously anticipating the results, surely it’ll be worth the wait…
