Presented by Noisemaker Presents Inc.
Matt Andersen’s The Hammer & The Rose is a veritable garden of heart. On his latest record, the Canadian songwriter opts for the kind of thoughtful, tender sentiments and arrangements one might associate with flowers, trading in the hard steel edges of his heavy blues riffs for delicate compositions and a warm sweetness. The title track provides an elegant metaphor for the differences and push-and-pull relationship between the head and the heart: the head wants to blaze a trail, prioritize practicality, and motor through things, while the heart wants to slow down, feel things, feel good. On The Hammer & The Rose, it’s the heart – the rose, the honey, the soul – that (mostly) wins out. But this is, of course, a Matt Andersen record. A surplus of heart is to be expected.
