Graventown
A kindness, positivity, mental health and music-magic-based informal conversational town hall created, authored, and produced by award winning Canadian singer songwriter and ex-journalist Matty McKechnie (known musically as Graven). Whether he has acclaimed or interesting pals, comedians, musicians or artists to interview - or even if it's just a solo-yolo convo that he "sends into the universe", Matty would always want you to know that you - whoever and wherever you are - are ALWAYS welcome in Graventown.

Episode 91: Interview w/ Romi Mayes
Friends, Countryfolk and Citykids; lend me your ears. As we rapidly approach the century mark episode of Graventown, I was mega triple pineapple lucky to sit down with one of the most renowned, busiest, hilarious and well known music makers in all Canada direct from the wanderlusty Winnipeg, Manitoba; Romi Mayes. When she's not winning awards for her heart-stinger songs, Romi is a trailblazing business woman who runs Sure Shot Bookings which is a booking company that connects hundreds of music makers from all across Canada. She is raw, unfiltered and real; my kind of human being! We had a wicked chat and I hope your ears enjoy it as much as our brains did.
My new album "Geographics" is releasing (on my Bandcamp page only) through late January into late February 2026, and every Monday and Friday of those months, I'll have a new song up for you to digest into your ear canals. This album is really special to me (as my friends Melissa Payne and Charles Austin played all over it) and I hope you'll come along for the supersonic ride. Follow me @gravencanada on all the socials, and check my website to see when I'm playing live in a town near you. Join Graventown today to support yours truly for only 8 clams a month.
