Details:
Delicate and defiantly optimistic, Before the World Falls Apart is the debut independent release from North London based singer-songwriter Matt Tinsley. Available 26th Octoboer 2009, both digitally and limited edition CD with hand-silkscreened sleeve and artwork.
After moving to London in 2001, having grown up in South Africa, Tinsley spent years playing sideman for all manner of bands and musical projects whilst quietly crafting something all his own.
Bringing together a tapestry of folk, americana & alt-rock, what began as a bedroom-recording project soon worked it''s way into the pubs and clubs of London, and it''s various suburbs & side-streets, where Tinsley found a ready audience for his tales of love and life. With a voice that is broken and hopeful in equal measure, Tinsley manages to craft songs that are hauntingly beautiful and deeply affecting.
Finally released in Autumn 2009, Before the World Falls Apart reveals it''s layers and subtle nuances with each listen.
From the stumbling, whiskey-fuelled despair of "Jack", to the apocalyptic lament of the title track, the listener is taken on a journey, whilst the driving defiance of "Run Wasted" and cynical jaunt of "Stay With Me" showcase Tinsley''s knack for witty and eloquent narrative
Before the World Falls Apart is something rare and beautiful: a musical treasure that manages to remain both familiar and exciting, whilst working its way deeper under the skin with each repeated listen.
