Matthew Lennox' journey has been eventful.
Forged in the streets, tempered by global tours and fueled by a passion for performance, his music is an eclectic amalgamation of influences as diverse as the John Butler Trio, Led Zeppelin, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Andy McKee, Antoine Dufour, Jesse Cook, Muse, Florence and the Machine, and many others. Combining the art of modern fingerstyle - tapping and slapping the guitar and employing unconventional techniques on the guitar - looping, and ethereal, atmospheric sound effects, he creates a sound unlike anything else.
"Instrumental music gives the listener their own ability to relate to and associate meaning with the music," he claims. Both video game and movie soundtracks were a big factor in the development of his sound, and he uses this to create music that paints an emotionally resonant - and yet subtly charged - vibe for the listener.
There is plenty more to come from this talented and upcoming artist as he paves his way across the musical spectrum. Watch this space for more as he unveils his grandest vision yet - his next album, "Home."
"Home" is an emotional journey of a homesick, wander-lusted troubadour, always taking a piece with him but leaving something irretrievable behind. From the epic triumph of "The Mountain Climber," to the sensual groove of "Right for the Time," to the bittersweet climax of "Home," he explores themes of hope and loss that are sure to leave a poignant resonance with the listener.
