LE VOLUME COURBE

 

"I don't feel like a proper musician, or a proper singer either. I guess I'm somebody that has ideas, puts things together. If you're trying to do your own thing, without caring what's going on around you, it can actually help if you sometimes don't know exactly what you're doing. Then it's automatically original. I can't copy anyone else, I don't have the technical know-how, so it's unique. Not being experienced gives you more freedom..."

MATHEW SAWYER & THE GHOSTS

 

The enigmatic Mathew Sawyer is a man with many facets. he is an internationally respected visual artist, he's played drums for the influential post-punk band the television personalities, and he is the lead singer and songwriter with his own musical collective, Mathew Sawyer And The Ghosts. 'blue birds blood' has a stunning depth and wistfulness. with sawyer's sauntering rasp as the charming cornerstone, this lo-fi pop paradise offers a proper candidate for some of the sweetest tunes heard yet this year. -ROUGHTRADE
