Matt Hornell and the Diamond Minds Album


This self titled record, Matt Hornell and the Diamond Minds is an essential record that everyone should own. It is quirky, moving, raw and identifiable. Matt's lyrics resonate and his voice is so strong- is innocent and playful yet there is strength and conviction. Instrumentation is top notch and the fluidity of the album is great. It is available at Fred's now but make sure you catch a live show- they really do an awesome show!
