Spotlight: Peirson Ross

From time to time I feel that I need to spread the word when I find great artists, and through this blog I will put the spotlight on them. I hope you enjoy it.

The first to hit the spotlight is the folk musician Peirson Ross from Toronto.

Peirson's music comes and grabs your attention through thoughtful lyrics, a soothing yet energetic voice and experimental musical settings. I first heard of him through a common friend on the disc golf scene and caught a show in the back room of Rivoli in Toronto. His presence made a big impact on me and he was a great inspiration for me to dig deeper into my own musical path.
