In the four short years since Kalle Mattson began writing songs, he and
his band have grown exponentially over that short period of time. With
two full-lengths and an EP already under his young belt, and now with
two viral videos for 'Water Falls' (250,000 views) and 'Thick As
Thieves' (over 1,000,000 views), Kalle Mattson returns this Fall with a
new 7" teaser of his highly anticipated new LP. Produced
by The Wooden Sky's Gavin Gardiner and recorded in 2012 at Toronto's
Lincoln County Social Club, Kalle Mattson's newest full-length features
appearances by members of Juno-nominated artists The Wooden Sky, Cuff
The Duke and a song co-written by Kalle and renowned singer-songwriter
Jeremy Fisher.
Kalle's second album, "Anchors", broke new
ground for him in 2011. The album was mixed by Howie Beck (Feist, Jason
Collett, Hayden), mastered at the legendary Bernie Grundman Studios
(Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, The Band) and received rave reviews that
culminated in numerous year end "Best Of" lists, a Top 100 placement in
the Billboard World Song Contest, and a song placement on Degrassi. All
the while Kalle hit the road in support of the album with stops along
the way at CMW, NXNE, Pop Montreal, COCA, and Ottawa Bluesfest, tours
with Sunparlour Players, Cuff The Duke & Jeremy Fisher and opening
slots for Jim Bryson, The Rural Alberta Advantage and Blue Rodeo. The
album also received a pair of Northern Ontario Music Award wins for
Album of the Year (Group) & SOCAN Songwriter of the Year.
In November 2011 Kalle Mattson’s music video for 'Thick As Thieves' went
viral with over 1,000,000 views to date. Created for only $250 in
materials, it was covered by such media outlets as Time Magazine, The
Huffington Post, Yahoo and Much Music, amongst others and leading The
National Post to highlight Kalle Mattson as one of five musicians poised
to breakout in 2012.
In Spring 2012 Kalle released a new EP
entitled "Lives In Between" to critical acclaim and heightened media
attention. The EP spawned Kalle's second viral music video for 'Water
Falls', which depicted a camera 'slingshotting' through San Fransisco in
a revolutionary new stop-motion technique. The video was premiered by
NPR's All Songs Considered and was featured in The Atlantic, CBS News,
Gizmodo, and led The Huffington Post to ask "Is this the coolest music
video of 2012?".
Kalle Mattson's newest full-length will be released in early 2014.
