Another Hit From The Berries

Matt Berry is a Seattle based musician who the ATH team has been down with for quite some time now. His musical project known as The Berries has seen a ton of posts on this here site over the last 3-4 years. His approach to songwriting with funny nuance on top of Americana inspired tunes for a very “Matt Berry” style of indie pop has always hit a chord with us. Naturally this means I am again excited to share the 2nd single entitled “Down That Road Again” from Berry’s upcoming new album. This guy has really honed his craft and is ever evolving into one of the best songwriters in the indie game right now.

The Berries new album, High Flying Man, will release on August 19th via Run For Cover Records.

The Berries Announce LP on Run For Cover

This is not a Barrie offshoot; this the Berries, the project of Matt Berry, formerly of Happy Diving/Big Bite. Today there’s news of a fresh LP in the pipeline of Run for Cover, and with Rob Schnapf mixing, you know the songs are already pretty solid. This first single feels like a classic nod to 90s alternative/college rock, when we were still allowed to be hopeful and dreamy of the beauty life held…rather than be brow beaten by a plague, demagogues, inflation, etc. Maybe that’s the point Matt’s getting to in his storytelling, reminding us that we don’t have to reinvent the wheel to find the reason we’re all here. If you’re digging it, High Flying Man is out on August 19th.
