PJ talks with Matt Hay, a veteran Wellington “Kiwimericana” songwriter, as he celebrates the release of his fantastic brand new album, Dog and Pony Show, out on April 5.
“I’m thrilled to share this collection of songs,” says Hay. “It’s been a great experience collaborating with such talented musicians, and I can’t wait for folks to hear the result.”
Dog and Pony Show is soulfully produced by fellow Pōneke musician, blues master Darren Watson, who says: “It’s testament to Hay’s ability to craft strong, thoughtful, and often wry lyrics that touch on everything, from the minutiae of everyday life, to broader political themes. All that and musical hooks for days!”
Recorded largely live-in-the-studio at Watson’s Lamington Recording (essentially his lounge), “over its eight tracks Dog and Pony Show captures the essence of Hay’s honest and heartfelt approach to music”.
Watson plays slide guitar, and is joined by “a stellar line-up”, Steve Moodie on double bass, Craig Denham on accordion, and Delia Shanly on drums and percussion.
“The album boasts a real ‘down-home’ feel where Hay’s vocals take centre stage, drawing listeners in and offering an intimate experience,” says Darren.
