Mat Kearney - Crazytalk (New CD)

2018 release, the first album in three years from the singer/songwriter. On his fifth album Crazytalk, Mat Kearney mixes his timeless songwriting with a genre-bending set of interests. Organic instruments, chill house grooves, tropical sounds and collaborationss with DJs AFSHeeN, filous & RAC are glued together by ageless hooks and thought-provoking lyrics. The result is arguably the most nuanced album of his acclaimed career; with EDM drops one minute and acoustic guitars the next, it nods to Kearney's history as a melody-driven songwriter who's pushing himself into new territory. The single "Better Than I Used to Be" is a collaboration between Mat and electronic producer AFSHeeN (Galantis, Selena Gomez, Madonna).
