Check out his show tomorrow night at The Rock Shop in Brooklyn for our CMJ showcase!
Brooklyn-based singer/songwriter Matt Cranstoun will release his sophomore independent effort The Last Drop of Color, November 19th.
Known for the commanding effect he has on an audience using only his words, voice and guitar, Cranstoun’s music is charged by the roots of folk and soul, in which every word— whether whispered or howled– expresses as much urgency as the next. At times his music evokes a cathartic gospel show, while others, a quiet and intimate look into the songwriter’s psyche.
Cranstoun, who began as a drummer at eight years old behind his father’s set, became a self-taught multi-instrumentalist before the age of 20. With the release of The Last Drop of Color, Cranstoun mixes the acoustic with the synthesized, displays versatile atmospheres and instrumentation, and achieves the balanced blend of styles that have inspired him, from the immortal worlds of classic soul and folk, to modern groove, funk and rock.
The Last Drop of Color
His emotionally charged voice — reminiscent of a soulful hybrid of Van Morrison, Bill Withers and Paul Simon — and lyrics lead the way throughout the broad spectrum of sound and genre in The Last Drop of Color.
Join us for Matt Cranstoun’s album release show at Mercury Lounge on November 19th with Chris Cubeta and the Liars Club.
