	Martin Tielli - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Martin Tielli, born in 1967 in Italy, is a Canadian singer-songwriter.
		Tielli's guitar style is textured and flamboyant, and his vocal style is acrobatic (he has an extremely developed falsetto range).
		His youngest brother Doug was in People from Earth with John Tielli, and went on to play with artists such as Tamara Williamson.

	Martin Tielli
		Martin has a knack for writing beautiful songs and then warping them slightly into something that may not be pop in the traditional sell-a-million-copies-for-the-man sense, but into something that seems otherworldly.
		Tielli is quoted in his press kit as saying his goal with this disc was to "make something that stands out in time", and he expanded on that theme when talk turned to today's music scene.
		Martin Tielli has unleashed his long overdue debut solo album We didn't even suspect that he was the poppy salesman (henceforth referred to as Poppy Salesman).

		Tielli is incapable of avoiding silly-isms and uncomfortable language, but more often than not, it all seems to work when delivered with those cheeky vocals and soaring instrumentation.
		Martin’s guitar work is flawless, unless it wasn't meant to be, and dynamic vocals seem to sit in the very room with you.
		Martin Tielli is an artist with a capitol A, encapsulating all that that means (see sex, drugs and rotten record companies).

	Martin Tielli
		In 2003, Martin committed to the most tragically ambitious music project to come out of Canada's independent music scene in a very long time: four wildly divergent CDs, packaged in collector's edition tin cases with original artwork by Tielli, one year for delivery.
		Martin Tielli is among those who has received OAC support, and his short is a live performance recorded in his apartment of "From the Reel" from his album We Never Even Suspected that He Was the Poppy Salesman.
		Tielli fan Richard Tomlin captured the video and sent it to us so that it could be shared with Tielli fans outside Ontario.

	___six-shooter: life is too short to listen to shitty music___
		Martin’s instantly recognizable melodic howl and signature ethereal guitar playing, adored by fans and critics across North America, have made him a fixture in the record collections of the self-professed cognoscenti, no doubt to his own ambivalent approval.
		Martin is perhaps best known as a member of the Rheostatics, the only band besides the Guess Who with two albums ranked in the top ten in a recent survey of music critics to determine Canada’s top-100 rock records.
		Tielli had all the requistite "matics" going for him long before he stepped out of the comfortable skin of the Rheostatics to explore the relative thinness of his own membrane.

	UWO Gazette - Volume 95, Issue 9
		Tielli, who grew up with a healthy dose of Neil Young, recalls fondly his introduction into a style of music other than the macho, antagonistic cock-rock that preoccupied popular radio during his youth.
		While Tielli admits the new material isn't a major deviation from the type of music the Rheostatics play, he confesses to having at least made an increased effort to be more lyrically concrete.
		As for the future, Martin Tielli is already preparing for a second solo album and has recently completed the next Rheostatics album.

		Tielli's voice is fragile and lovely as it sings its first words: “I hate you all: you smell like old ideals, cheap sanctified storybook ideals, religious rot”.
		The Rheostatics, Martin Tielli included, are supposed to come out with a new album this year, and I suspect I would find Operation Infinite Joy a bittersweet triumph if that weren’t the rumor.
		Let Tielli build his magic kingdoms off by himself; let him fill it with orphans and sharks and water beasties, with coleslaw and three-legged dogs and quiet defiance.

		Martin Tielli : We Didn't Even Suspect He Was the Poppy Salesman
		These songs by Martin Tielli, guitarist/vocalist of Canadian art rockers the Rheostatics, reveal a sardonic look at different aspects of life, including a few revolving around the music industry.
		The artistic, intrinsic style of Tielli is the trait which carries so many of the songs, particularly when it comes to "Farmer in the City," one of the two longer tunes among the 11.

	The Dominion: Mail Order Tielli: Infinite Joy from a Subscriber's Perspective (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Tielli is best known for his perfect vocal and guitar caterwauling, and for song-writing with the Toronto rock group the Rheostatics.
		In a photocopied note accompanying the record, handwritten by Tielli to the subscriber, he states, "I apologize for the delay on this first offering but I figured that every bit better it could be--it would be." The selection and ordering of tracks was, apparently, a painstaking process.
		Tielli has obviously taken the necessary time to ensure that all aspects of this project are aesthetic.

	SurlyPundit: Martin Tielli's belly button
		I was at the very front of the crowd (not a huge crowd, but a crowd), pressed up against the speaker and monitor, staring straight up at Martin Tielli.
		Martin said hi to me, but I was too chicken to say hi back or get an autograph.
		And Martin, if you happen to read this, I was the girl in fl with the long dark blonde hair who wouldn't stop staring at you.

		There is little doubt that the record would have had a hard time coming close to breaking even if Tielli had had to have the support of a business hoping to make money, rather than a grant giving him full artistic control.
		It's the kind of record you'll listen to a thousand times just to catch the slightest glimpse at its meanings, which from one minute to the next are either profound or insipid.
		Tielli sounds like a more-serious Jack Black, but it would be a mistake to lump him in the humor section.

	Nick Buzz - Circo Review
		Anyone who knows Martin Tielli from the Rheostatics would have at some point questioned the musicians sanity.
		Tielli states that the first ever concert that he ever attended was a Bruce Cockburn/ Murray McLaughlin show and now he is actually performing with many of the same musicians.
		Like I said, this is a strange album but if you have the time and patience (read: 5-10 listens) you will be rewarded with one of the most compelling releases that Tielli has ever played a part of.

	RLM: Martin Tielli (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Martin Tielli of Rheostatics plays his soothing, cool, not-much-rock music.
		We Didn't Even Suspect He Was the Poppy Salesman (2001) -- If you're going to go solo, like I've always said, it's good to sound different from the original band, and Martin does sound different than the Rheostatics when by himself.
		This album is mostly well-played acoustic guitar, interesting (kinda spooky, quiet) songs.

	SurlyPundit: Weird Shit Archives
		If Martin had been born 200 years ago in 1804, in the fledgling city of York, he would definitely have had to go back to Europe for a musical career.
		Signor Tielli's famous anxiety would have been admired as a feature of tumultuous genius, but as composers were often expected to tour with their works and perform, there was little sympathy for cancellations and disappointments.
		Whoever was telling me he had an email to send me about Martin Tielli, manhood, and Europe, please send it to 0fac at qlink.queensu.ca post-haste, as my Tielli obsession knows no bounds.

	!earshot : reviews : Martin Tielli - We Didn't Even Suspect That He Was the Poppy Salesman
		Martin Tielli is a member of the Rheostatics.
		But, thankfully, the inevitable comparisons are rendered insightful, and ultimately transcended, by Tielli's distinctive voice and original set of songs.
		What is especially wonderful about...Poppy Salesman is its stark, spare beauty, indicating a willingness on Tielli's part to move beyond what many have pinned down as the trademark Tielli sound.

	Martin Tielli*s Machine Gun
		Martin Tielli of the Rheostatics has been the driving force in Canada's most eclectic, and probably most adventurous band for over a decade, and now after creating soundtracks and scores for art exhibits, Tielli has decided that it's time for a solo project.
		Over a coffee and some soup to sooth those nasty hunger pangs, Tielli revealed some of his early influences and why he felt the need to fly solo.
		September should prove to be a helluva month for Tielli with his debut solo release party September 13 and a new Rheostatics release in the can, fans of Martin's work should have no shortage to choose from as we head into 2002.

	Martin Tielli Takes His Cabaret On The Road
		Back in September we told you that the much-worshipped Martin Tielli had committed himself to a subscription program, in which he would send subscribers a series of four albums.
		The second disc is called Shoenberg Cabarets and Tielli will celebrate its mail-out with a handful of shows later this month.
		Danny G. is described as "a portrait of rural southern Ontario inside the true and complex story of a haunted town." New Gold, on the other hand, is a more symphonic affair that Tielli worked on with producer Jon Goldsmith.

		Hi Arete, I'm glad you liked the Martin clips.
		He also does some very nice art as well, which suits his music beautifully.
		Anyway, it's nice that you gave it a chance.

	Review - Martin Tielli: Operation Infinite Joy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Stepping out from his Rheostatics duties, prolific Martin Tielli shows off yet another solo record of quirky pace changes, enchanting story lines and Bowie's voice.
		He's always had Bowie's voice, and since Bowie ain't using it for much good these days, that ain't a bad thing.
		The tempo twists and herky jerky, turn on a dime mood swings may not thrill everyone, but those searching for a captivating cabaret style record of reach for the stars scope will surely find a warm home for this, his best one yet.
