THE BEAST

Carolina Appalachian Irish-American folk soloist MATT HECKLER is currently on tour across the US in support of his new LP, After The Flood.

 

The After The Flood album was initially released independently, and shortly afterward, saw an official vinyl release through Anti-Corporate Music in conjunction with his multiple waves of widespread tour dates supporting labelmates Lost Dog Street Band.

 

Now, MATT HECKLER is embarked on his first headlining tour in support of the new album, with tour dates in Nebraska, Colorado, Utah, Washington, Oregon, California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, and Vermont through November 24th. Along the way he'll share the stage with Casper Allen on most of the West Coast dates, Casper Allen and Johno Leeroy Roberts on the Texas shows, the tour ending with two solo shows in Vermont November 23rd and 24th.

MATT HECKLER is the fiddle player you want to believe still exists. Veering from Appalachia to Romania, Ireland to the Catskills, his music is definitively unsafe and entirely his own. The Catskills, where he grew up, and the Carolina Appalachians he calls home are old mountains, but the kids there are more likely to be raised on punk than old time string bands. HECKLER took both with him when he left and sharpened a distinctive sound on banjo and fiddle the scientific way, as a street performer who could measure the days artistic growth in single dollar bills.

 

Attracting the attention of musicians, as well as passers-by, he spent half a decade touring and releasing three albums with the band Deep Chatham. Since then his room silencing solo act has become an exciting yet poorly kept secret in DIY music scenes around the country. After The Flood will be his first full-length release showcasing a songwriting ability that audiences, distracted by his casually virtuosic musicianship, might have previously overlooked. Don't wait for his next reinvention, find MATT HECKLER now and remember what music should be.
