The Mattson 2
with special guest Kainalu
Saturday, March 7th
The Back Room @ Colectivo
Doors 7pm // Show 8pm
The Mattson 2 are Jared and Jonathan Mattson, identical twins who have been collaborating almost literally from birth. Their deep telepathic kinship navigates colorful forms of beautiful weirdness and exotic landscapes of layered improvisation, transcending the concept of modern musical performance. The duo shimmers and shakes with the soaring modern wizardry of Jared’s untamed, layered guitars and Jonathan’s tribal jazz hard-bop drumming.
‘Paradise’, their 8th record released in 2019, marks the first time that the brothers have added vocals and is a masterful piece of psych-jazz, conceptually elegant and thrilling it its execution.

“The twin-brother jazz duo are experts at channeling the sounds of light and ease, and there’s something almost alchemical about their mutual precision.” -Pitchfork
“While the two prove to be stellar songwriters, it’s their extended jams and vibe-setting that make this such an enticing listen.” -Noisey
