Solo album from Ard Matthews

29 Mar 2012

Ard Matthews' new solo album, "First Offerings", will be released in the winter of 2012, but the first single from the album, Bolder, has just been submitted to national radio. "First Offerings" will introduce 12 new songs.

In January Matthews asked Tumi Molekane to collaborate on the track. Matthews said: "What he did was so fresh and appropriate that I was immediately happy to include him as a co-writer. The song is a celebration of life and encourages people to 'want for more' as we go forth boldly with our lives." The single was mixed in Los Angeles by Bryan Cook (Radiohead, Train, Queens of the Stone Age).

The video was shot entirely on an iPhone 4S while Matthews was in India. "Just me on a scooter, earpiece in my right ear, playing the track and a little luck. Check out the mad lens flare at end of song as I rev off in to the night for dramatic effect. Couldn't have planned it better with a crew of 50 people."
