EP Focus: Mat Black Band

Answered by: Mat Black

EP Title? One Man Ghost Town

How many releases do you have now? This is our debut release for this project. It's a blend of dark country and southern rock, and recording begins in April.

Was anything in particular inspiring you during the making? Staying sober, getting older, isolation, old relationships and living with mental illness all played a part in the writing of these songs. The process was very cathartic. 

What's your favourite song on it? Black Dog Blues has become the signature tune for the band. A bluesy southern rock epic with Lynyrd Skynyrd influences.

We'll like this EP if we like... Steve Earle, The White Buffalo, Drive-By Truckers, Slobberbone.

When and where is your launch/next gig? 16 Mar, Wesley Anne. Mr Alford Country and TK Reeve in support from 8pm.
