Child's Guitar by Matanah

No lyrics only mumbles. Building Soil and The River were written and performed with a child's guitar. I have a cold.

I use my music to tell autobiographical stories about intimacy, heartbreak, damaging memories and hope. Many of my songs use fairy tales and allegory to transport and activate imagination. Heavily influenced by shape note singing and the Appalachian mountain music I grew up with, I use harmonies and rounds that are infectious and fun to sing.
