I unearthed an old hard drive and the gems are there. Expect a whole bunch of nostalgia laden memories like this. In 2011, I took the pieces of my songs to @rarebookroom_sandtosnow in Brooklyn and we finished them to become my album Beams. This is the final mix session of Her Fantasy which ended up becoming the first single for the album.
We’re proud to welcome Matthew Dear to Detroit Vinylfest for a special in-person appearance. @matthewdear

All great musicians are a reflection of their influences. It can be a conscious choice but it can also be a subconscious decision. Great artists master their craft then use it to reinterpret their experience into something new for the world to see. I appreciate any musician going above and beyond to create something unique and captivating. Hats off to @geesebandnyc for doing just that.
