Our First Featured Artist : Glass Pear
'Glass Pear' is singer/songwriter Yestyn Griffiths’ performing name.
The Welsh-born singer is the younger brother of recording artist Jem. After co-writing songs for her debut “Finally Woken” and follow-up “Down To Earth”, Yestyn sent a 4 track demo to tastemaker DJ Nic Harcourt of KCRW. Nic’s early support for tracks “Last Day Of Your Life” and “Vultures” was instrumental in getting the music heard.
In late 2008 the producers of 90210 chose “Last Day Of Your Life” to end the debut episode of the new series and Grey’s Anatomy featured the track in early 2009. In October 2009, CW series Vampire Diaries featured Glass Pear’s song “Wild Place”. Fox’s Bones followed with a prominent placing of “My Ghost” in November.
The debut album “Streets of Love” is released on Yestyn’s own label WOL Records and is available digitally on iTunes/Amazon, followed by the newly released eight-song EP Sweet America , Glass Pear’s calmly studied folk/pop, effortlessly buoyed by his soaring falsetto, chiming guitars, velvety production and gorgeously hymnal melodic lines.
