KALLE MATTSON pops by Grooves Records for a Free In-Store concert on Thursday, May 20th at 3pm..!
Here's what it says on KalleMattson.com:
he average age of Kalle Mattson is 19.
In the two short years since Kalle Wainio began writing songs under the pseudonym ‘Kalle Mattson’, the band has grown from a Dylan-influenced solo act into a full on experimental folk-rock quartet. In July 2008 they self-produced their first EP, entitled Telescope (which quickly sold out), and in January ’09, Kalle Mattson entered the studio with local legends Mark Gough (Best Engineer – 2009 NOMFA) and multi-instrumentalist Frank Deresti on bass. The result of this collaboration is the critically acclaimed debut album entitled ‘Whisper Bee’. After two Canadian tours and countless other shows, the talented new lineup consisting of Kalle Wainio (Songs, Lead Vocals, Guitar), Rory Lewis (Lead Guitar, Synthesizers, Audible Strangeness), Théan Slabbert (Bass, Backing Vocals), and Jimmie Chiverelli (Percussion), have created a unique, and energetic live sound which has drawn universal praise from both the Canadian and British music press. In summer ’10 Kalle Mattson will enter the studio once again to record their sophomore effort with Gavin Gardiner (of The Wooden Sky fame) at the helm. Inspired by the many artists they have shared the stage with (The Wooden Sky, Great Bloomers, You Say Party We Say Die!, Coco Love Alcorn, The Darcys, The Pack A.D., Vancougar, B.A. Johnston, The Deep Dark Woods, Spiral Beach, Elliott Brood and Cowboy Junkies to name a few), the future looks very bright for Kalle Mattson.
