详细介绍

Mat Kearney于1978年12月1日出生。能写善唱的Mat Kearney从在加州大学读书的时候就开始了自己的音乐生涯,在那里他进修文学而且还是足球队的主力球员。完成了三年级的学业后Kearney和他的好友也是后来的制作人Robert Marvin一起前往了纳仕维尔,本来的目的仅仅是夏季采风吸取灵感写些歌,可出乎意料有唱片邀约,Kearney决定留在田纳西随即开始了专业音乐生涯,他钟爱把Hip-Hop和民谣夹杂入流行的曲调,在2004年Kearney在家独立厂牌下出版了第一张专辑《Bullet》,06年加盟了主流厂牌哥伦比亚唱片后第二张专辑《Nothing Left to Lose》问世,这张在纳仕维尔Dark Horse Studio录制的专辑,为Kearney稍稍淡化Hip-Hop的押韵,更多的专注于吉他的演奏上,旋律性更强。 在加盟了主流厂牌后推出的第一张专辑《Nothing Left to Lose》,年轻的唱作人Mat Kearney呈现的是糅合John Mayer, Jason Mraz,和U2风格的听觉感受,旋律犹如John Mayer初期的作品,但Kearney热衷加入Hip-Hop强化节奏的押韵感,他则在轻轻哼唱的副歌和Rap演唱间自如交错。同时他演唱时表现出的真挚隐忍又让人不禁联想到Chris Martin或者是早期的U2,涵盖《Nothing Left to Lose》中的十几首歌曲,无论是Kearney的声线还是回复段的吉他演奏都能让人觉得极似Coldplay,尤其是"Crashing Down"和"In the Middle"的钢琴演唱部分。听Kearney的音乐,是一种感受新兴音乐的体验,既有成人另类流行乐的通俗又不乏学院派演出的严谨,Kearney的音乐是迎合大众的,即使有点过激的Rap,也被他处理得工整。 Mat Kearney Kearney从不自诩是另一个Jason Mraz,专辑中无时无刻不体现的是演唱者的真切和严肃,但对于Kearney来说要面对的是一个犹如阿契里斯之踵般的弱点,一种固有的羞怯和谦虚,让他总是呈现哀伤和过于自我专注。抛开隐藏的哀怨情绪不谈,Kearney的音乐还是讨人喜欢的,多亏了他那邻家男孩版的嗓音和干净有干劲的信条。关于《Nothing Left to Lose》,作品水准不品均是年轻歌手很难避免的弊病,尤其是难以把握的Rap和民谣流行曲、情歌的比重, 稍不留心即影响了给人的优雅感。《Nothing Left to Lose》中过半的歌曲其实是那些定位Kearney为未来之星曲目的重新混音版本,尤其适合那些觉得近来John Mayer过于猛烈,Coldplay过于冷淡艺术性的听众。 Born in Eugene, OR, singer/songwriter Mat Kearney began his musical career at California State University, Chico, where he studied literature and played on the soccer team. After completing his junior year, Kearney went to Nashville with friend and producer Robert Marvin, with the intention of only staying the summer to lay down a few songs. However, after the offers for recording deals began coming in, Kearney decided to remain in Tennessee to seriously pursue music. His interesting blend of hip-hop and folk intrigued Inpop Records, which offered Kearney the deal he was looking for and released his debut album, Bullet, in 2004. His follow-up, Nothing Left to Lose, recorded at Dark Horse Studios in Nashville, found Kearney departing slightly from his rhymes and concentrating more on guitar work, and was issued by Aware/Columbia Records in 2006.
