Singer/songwriter Matt Arbogast follows in a long tradition of gravelly-voiced truth tellers - you can hear echoes of Tom Waits, Nick Cave, even a little Mike Ness... Like the best of these predecessors, he uncovers the poetic and tragic in the banal, crafting simple songs that reach a deeper level through his subtle mix of lyricism and intrumentation, and his ability to pull from multiple genres. A truly unique voice, and much more than just another guy with a guitar...
The first three songs here are from Souls, out in December on Latest Flame Records. More info on the Gunshy website.
