Artist Description
"Heart-breaking
tales of modern life, of condoms and Coke cans left by cemetery fences,
and of wildfires burning in the west. Influenced by country and
bluegrass Bauer is reinterpreting those traditions to create a haunting
modern sound."
-San Francisco Bay Guardian
Brooklyn resident Matt Bauer
grew up in Kentucky, and his music is rooted in the sounds and natural
surroundings of the region. His melodies and banjo style bear the
markings of traditional mountain music, but his sound is distinctly
contemporary. The lyrics live unflinchingly in the present and the
arrangements draw on influences as varied as gamelan orchestras and
post-rock.
