Long ago (1977), and not very far away, (downtown Toronto), a new wave music formula was born. What would happen if you took three art
students, (Mark Gane, Andy Haas, Martha Ladly), an ex-theatre student who was working at an art gallery, (that was me - Martha Johnson), a
business administration student, (Carl Finkle), a nineteen year old kid fresh out of high school who hadn't quite figured out what to do next,
(Tim Gane), and told them to sing, play and write songs together on instruments they were only beginning to explore? MARTHA AND THE
MUFFINS was the end result. ---Martha Johnson
