And

October 13th, 2007

urbn Posted:

Jonah Matranga and his art are essentially unclassifiable. His music
lies somewhere in between Elliott Smith, U2 and Cheap Trick, but it
doesn’t really fit into any genre.


Over the last 15 years, he’s fronted hard rock bands (Far, Gratitude)
and made classic indie records (onelinedrawing, New End Original). He’s
made records with budgets ranging from $300 to $300,000.
Jonah has influenced artists from Deftones to Blink-182, but he sounds
nothing like either of them. He’s toured with artists from The
Weakerthans to Sepultura, and has respect from people all over the
music world. He’s recently turned up on hip-hop records from Fort Minor
and Lupe Fiasco.


Jonah has played as many house shows as he has huge festivals, and he
brings the same thing regardless of where he’s playing — accomplished,
ambitious songwriting, an abundance of wit and honesty, and an interest
in making something new every time.
There is no one quite like Jonah.
