Matt Berry was always convinced that, should he be lucky enough to avoid getting a ‘normal’ job, he would be a musician. His life would follow a certain path which, whilst not obviously attractive to most, would have seen him be ‘in a number of bands that would get dropped by the record company.’. So far it hasn’t quite turned out like that at all. 

‘Witchazel’ announced Berry as a writer of some distinction, MOJO praising an album ‘coming from a place of real eccentricity and imagination’, The Guardian finding the whole thing ‘genuinely impressive’,The Times declaring Matt a ‘multi-instrumental pysch-folk genius’  and Q summing it up neatly for the newcomers as ‘the sound of the Fleet Foxes had they grown up within earshot of the M25’.

Each track is born from live studio sessions, with long takes of experimentation and play. Carefully chopping and refining these moments, to craft these tunes.

{formerly A Thorny Succulent} I play and write music in my head constantly every day. This is the product of my brain's favorite recreational activity. Enjoy :D !!!

Feel free to ask about using my music in mixes / sets / stuff (I'm pretty open as long as I get credit ;D)!

All songs here can be downloaded for free unless specifically stated otherwise (let me know if I forget to enable downloads for any of my tracks)!
