The song "Jeff Goldblum" is off Mattiel's new album Georgia Gothic out March 18, following their Garrison show March 6th. |
Here's the scoop...
Atlanta-based duo Mattiel announces their new album Georgia Gothic will be out March 18th via ATO Records. The group's announcement of their third full-length album arrives in tandem with their lead single "Jeff Goldblum," which was born out of front-woman and vocalist Mattiel Brown's crush on the song's namesake and is accompanied by a visual montage of scenes from the movies Earth Girls Are Easy and The Fly.
"Well, my crush on Jeff Goldblum is very real," Says vocalist Mattiel Brown about the track. "He inspired the words - but this is more of a dream where a Jeff look-a-like meets me in a bathroom."
In a sense, Georgia Gothic serves as a re-introduction to the Georgia duo as collaborators, but also as a pair whose tastes, inspirations and mutual adoration of their shared home state of Georgia intertwine with the music they make. With much of it recorded free of distractions and surrounded by northern Georgia forest, the album hones in on Mattiel and Jonah's collective identity as a duo, working together and challenging one another to develop the sound that feels like home. The result is an album that embodies the otherworldly range and lovable oddity of their state's musical tapestry, from country guitar and crooning Americana to shimmering pop rock and hints of Atlanta hip-hop's lasting influence, Georgia Gothic is Mattiel's ode to home and how it shaped them.
Preceded by a pair of hometown shows at the Earl this week to celebrate the announcement of their new album, Mattiel will embark on a North American tour in 2022 beginning in February in Washington, DC, with stops in Montreal, Toronto for a show at The Garrison on March 6th and SXSW before wrapping up April 8th in Los Angeles.
