Sometime around 2006, Matt Thomas of New Haven, CT found himself in between projects, wondering what to do next. The answer came as soon as he got his hands on a Mac and discovered Garage Band.

He toiled and tinkered. He wrote and recorded one song. One song led to many. He shared a few with people. The people really liked them—particularly Jason Hamel of Mates of State, who encouraged Matt to put a band together to share a bill with the Mates and Carlos Wells, who released the collection of bedroom recordings as 'A Cloak of Nouns and Loss' on Safety Meeting Records in 2008. Their full-band, follow-up effort 'Love Buttons' hit the shelves on Valentine's Day 2011.

You can find them and their music at their Facebook and Bandcamp. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
