2. MANCE RAYDER: There is perhaps no more enigmatic artist alive than Mance Rayder. Born into pre-independence INFF and raised in the Westerosi Far North, Rayder spent his early career writing and performing alongside Free Folk music legends at protests such as the Winterfell Encampment of 1960. While Rayder's debut album "Mance Rayder Is On The Wall" was met with massive popularity, it wasn't until his collaborations with jazz pianist Qhorin Halfhand that his music breached the mainstream. Albums such as "An Outsider's In" (1964) and "Purse Of Sand" (1969) achieved massive success and are attributed with the creation of jazz folk.Following Rayder's 1973 return to solo pursuits, he continued to imbue the variety of genres he dabbled in with the spirit, wit, and poeticism for which he first gained notoriety. Despite his retirement at the age of 81, Rayder's influence on music, poetry, and popular culture are immeasurable. His songwriting, with its uncanny ability to transport listeners into the worlds he wove, remains the golden standard against which all other music is judged.
