Matt Andersen

The Big Bottle of Joy is about celebration – hard-won, overflowing, exuberant celebration. Matt Andersen’s latest long-player lives up to the grand title. Andersen finds reason to sustain this celebration of the life we share together everywhere. Here, he’s on the road, missing a lover; then, between the sheets in a southern Ontario motel room. The album is infused with raw blues-rock, rollicking Americana, thoughtful folk, and ecstatic gospel.
