Matteah Baim is a New York-based artist whose career bridges both music and visual art. After receiving her Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting and drawing from the San Francisco Art Institute, Baim moved to New York and formed the self-described “soft metal” band Metallic Falcons with Sierra Casady. Their 2006 debut, Desert Doughnuts, was released on VE/Touch and Go Records. She went on to record her first solo studio album, Death of the Sun at her then-home in Venice Beach, CA in 2007 for Dicristina/ Revolver USA. Laughing Boy, her second solo album, was recorded and released two years later. Falling Theater, recorded and mixed in New York, will be released through Kobalt Music in 2014.

Baim has performed at ATP UK, Neil Young's Bridge School Benefit at the Shoreline Amphitheater, and at The Meltdown Festival as part of events for the 2012 Olympic Games. She has also performed in conjunction with Antony and the Johnsons' US tour of “The Crying Light” as well as with Devendra Banhart, High Places, Sharon Van Etten, Lower Dens, Lucky Dragons, Jim Jarmusch, Liturgy, and Vashti Bunyan. Her visual art has been included in exhibitions at MoMA PS1, The Kitchen, Agnes B, The New York Armory Show, Gavin Brown Enterprises, and White Columns.
