Matador

Matador is a band based out of Santa Cruz with a sound that will make your eardrums kick. Their harmonic lyrics of the natural world and those who inhabit is taken in to a unique account as Mathew and Dorota throw their own spin on American folk music while adding some sprinkles of polish flavor. First seeing these guys preform was at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass, completely fed up with the ruthless hordes of people and overcrowded stages. I began walking out and saw these cats performing on the street corner, utterly stoked, I danced, I listened and was enchanted. If you dig it you can purchase their album here.
