Travis Cyr is a creative force uniquely his own. His music is a rootsy mix of spacey folk and Americana balladry. Warmly gentle, vastly strong and intensely vivid. Flowing between delicately precise and aggressively percussive acoustic guitar work, washed in splashes of cosmic space and ancient delay and laced with honest and poetic lyrics. The resulting mix is highly original and can effortlessly take the listener on a sonic and emotional journey. He has played over 2,000 shows and released 15 albums of all original songs. He is the founder of the Arootsakoostik music festival, a visual artist and is currently editing a book of short stories.
