A Chat with Heart - with Christina Martin

Christina chats with Mike and Kristen about their book 'You and Me' and life as full-time artists.
Michael S. Ryan — award-winning musician and songwriter — and Kristen Herrington —prolific abstract artist — have been adventuring as a couple for the past decade. They began creating art together in 2019 with Herrington developing a painting for every song from Ryan’s first solo album From the Bottoms of Our Murky Hearts. “You and Me” is their first co-authored book that brings a hilarious collection of short stories from their lived travel and relationship experiences. The couple co-hosts a podcast, "Mike and Kristen" where they share chats about following dreams, life as artists and how to wander the unbeaten path. They live in Halifax, Nova Scotia with their cat George and a revolving cast of fosters from the SPCA.
