// November 22nd, 2007 // No Comments » // music // music

Hey everyone,

ICI Magazine reviewed Folk Tales in the November 22nd issue, finally! They gave it a really great review It feels so good that people are “getting” my record and that I’m not crazy for doing this. I want to thank Evelyne from ICI fornher help in spreading the word about Folk Tales.

The only thing is that the date for the Casa del Popolo gig is December 13th! (not 15th)

THANKS!!

Here’s the review (Go to page 25)

MATT LIPSCOMBE
FOLK TALES
Indé/Outside
Parfois dénudées, parfois orchestrées, les mélodies de l’ancien Me Mom & Morgentaler sont suffisamment belles pour faire leur chemin par elles-mêmes. Ce second effort est nettement différent du premier et,malgré budget restreint, est plus convaincant. Nous rappelant par moment un Jack Johnson ou un John Lennon, il semble avoir trouvé sa voie entre le folk et la pop éthérée.Avec une production plus étoffée, nous serions en présence d’un album pouvant faire sérieusement son chemin quoique son côté intimiste ne soit pas désagréable. Un compositeur sérieux dont il faudra surveiller les prochaines parutions. Au Divan Orange le 28 nov. À la Casa del Popolo le 15 déc. (SP)

Last week while Gus, Kim and I were in promotional mode for Me Mom and Morgentaler, we ended up singing Anarchie live on the radio during Christiane Charette’s radio show! Here’s a press photo from that day.

Review of Folk Tales in VOIR back in October

// November 20th, 2007 // No Comments » // music // music

Since this is the beginning of my blog presence, I just wanted to share with you all a wonderful review of my current album Folk Tales that was in the Montreal VOIR magazine back in October 07.

“Folk Tales
Olivier Robillard Laveaux

Ex-membres de Me Mom & Morgentaler, Kim Bingham et Matt Lipscombe lançaient tous deux leur album solo le 11 septembre dernier. [...] le compact de Matt Lipscombe mérite qu’on s’y arrête plus longuement. [...] il revient avec Folk Tales, un album anglophone aux compositions folk jazzées à mi-chemin entre l’oeuvre de Damien Rice et Patrick Watson (qui collabore au disque). [...] Touchantes et raffinées, ses pièces aux arrangements simples serviront l’ambiance douce d’un souper romantique.”

Hello everyone,

Well it’s me, Matt Lipscombe, finally online with a new website coming very soon and a new blog! The website will be www.mattlipscombe.com and will be up over the course of the next few weeks.

It’s been quite the ride with the Me Mom and Morgentaler shows last week. What a special time that was!

But now I’m back in the saddle with my own singer-songwriter folk rock project and album Folk Tales and stoked about my upcoming show at Le Divan Orange on November 28th with Camaromance. I’ll be playing with the fantastic Sage Reynolds on Bass.

As usual you can check out my myspace but I also have a musician’s profile on facebook now!
