MATTHEW CONNOR - SMOKE SIGNALS
Haunting
and hypnotic, modern-day chamber-pop artist Matthew Connor is giving crooning a
dark, mysterious and eclectic edge. A sound built on thoughtful music theory
and powered by Connor's emotive lyrics and booming baritone, Connor is an evocative blend of today’s
Portishead and Daughn Gibson with yesterday’s legends like Elvis and Sinatra.
He is currently preparing to release his first full-length album, Farewell
Motel, in October 2014. There
are those who choose to play music, and then there are masterminds like modern
day chamber-pop artist Matthew Connor, who are born for it. Composing before he
could even write his name, Connor’s lifelong dedication to achieving excellence
in writing and producing has transformed him into a gutsy, bold and original
solo artist. Connor
is currently preparing to release his first full-length album, Farewell Motel,
in October 2014. A darker, modern twist of the old-fashioned crooner aesthetic,
the new album is a forte of lush instrumentation, surprising beats and of
course, Connor’s stage-stealing vocals. The first single, "How Is July
Already Over?" will debut this summer and will be accompanied by an eerily
beautiful, stop-motion music video shot by New York-based photographer Marc McAndrews.
The harmonious marriage between classical music’s intricate details and
contemporary music’s edge, Farewell Motel, in all, is the brilliance, that is
Matthew Connor. Smoke Signals includes remixes from Andre Obin, Troels Abrahamsen, and more.
