Here are some words from Matt about the release:

“I’m releasing a cover of ‘Once Upon a Time’ by the great Sonny Sharrock. We recorded it in the late summer of 2020, and it was the first time my trio got together to play music since March of the same year due to the Covid-Pandemic. Since we couldn’t be indoors together, we set up an outdoor recording session behind (drummer) Jeremy Cunningham’s house. It’s a song we’ve been playing for several years now, and I love the way this track turned out. I’m especially grateful we could capture the first moments of playing together after so many months apart. Sonny Sharrock’s music is overflowing with intensity, grace, and free-spiritedness, and I felt like it was the perfect piece of music to record, a clear window into the feeling of finally playing together again alongside the feeling of this moment more broadly, globally.”

Matt recently released his debut album Imagined Sky to critical acclaim. You can check out the full album on our site: here.
