Its Autumn, Its Matt Pond PA

 

There is something that happens to me when the cool air becomes breezy, it gets dark out so early, and the leaves start to fall from the tree. Everything seems to change, and the only soundtrack to that change is Matt Pond PA. Every Autumn I fall a little more in love with Matt Pond PA.

Right now I am listening to “Last Light,”  and “Emblems” on repeat and memorizing every little note, every little guitar strum. It makes me feel warm and comforted. Something everyone needs. If you’ve never checked out Matt Pond PA before, I urge you too. You don’t know what you’re missing out on.

Oddly enough, I first started listening to Matt Pond PA about 4 years ago, when a friend of mine was throwing out a mix cd that someone had made for them. I saw the band’s name on the back and snagged it. The first song I ever heard by them, and by far perhaps still my favorite is “Lookout (Closet)”. It still sounds haunting to me. Matt Pond’s voice is one of my favorite sounds.

Watch “Closet (Lookout)” from “Emblems”
