Scott Matthews strikes and awes. His blues-tinged folk songs won over not only influential UK radio DJ's including Zane Lowe, Mark Radcliffe and Jo Wiley, but also inspired an early listener to create a label to release his incredible debut, Passing Stranger. Recently, the Wolverhampton songsmith won the prestigious Ivor Novello award in the Best Song Musically and Lyrically category for his atmospheric, spine-tingling single ;Elusive;, beating out Arctic Monkeys & Nerina Pallot.
The multitude of acclaim received for "Elusive" should by no means distract from the fact that in Passing Stranger Scott has crafted a beautiful, evoking and full album. Much of what makes Passing Stranger such a stunning debut is its variety. From the driving blues groove of 'Sweet Scented Figure,' to the somber yet gorgeous weaving of hushed vocals and soft guitar notes on ;Earth to Calm,; Passing Stranger contains diversity and great imagination.
