With Wide Eyes

My CD is now available

About Me

In a new generation of music that is obsessed with complicated dance, techno and metal influences, With Wide Eyes is like a fresh breath of air to the ears. Solo artist Chris Martel, a practicing musician for over ten years, produces calming and skilled acoustic music accompanied by crisp, melodic vocals. All of the lyrics are charged with poetic yet raw emotional power that possess a sort of honesty that can rarely be found in so many "scene" bands today. Influenced by artists such as Dashboard Confessional and Ryan Cabrera, With Wide Eyes is an uprising artist that has already carved a niche of fans with his mellow yet dominating acoustic sounds. With the release of Simple Sounds, things are looking skyward for With Wide Eyes. Chris Martel is With Wide Eyes. He is 24 years old and is now living in Austin, TX.
