Matt Jaffe + Jeff Symonds - Dual Album Release Show! Ivy Room Presents 21+ Matt Jaffe Jeff Symonds Ivy Room Presents Matt JaffeWebsite / Facebook / Instagram / Twitter / YouTube / Spotify After cutting his teeth on open mics around the Bay Area, San Francisco songwriter Matt Jaffe was discovered by Jerry Harrison of Talking Heads. Together, they produced his first album at the age of 16, cementing Matt's dedication to music. Soon, he formed a band, dropped out of college, and has not looked back. Since then, Matt has written more songs than he can remember the words to, crisscrossed the country opening for Mavis Staples and Wilco, and co-written with Tom Higgenson of the Plain White T's. Inspired by the great lineage of rock n' roll, he marries literary lyrics with the undeniable urge to dance. Having suffered from seizures since 2015, Matt also uses his music to unite local and national epilepsy communities. Matt is currently rolling out his fourth and fifth albums, Undertoad and Kintsugi. Jeff SymondsWebsite / Facebook / Instagram / Twitter / Bandcamp / Spotify After 25 years playing bass, keys, and guitar for dozens of Bay Area artists, Jeff Symonds steps out on his own with riverrun, his first solo release that celebrates and looks back at a life lived in love with the glorious noise of rock ’n’ roll. riverrun features swampy Pettyish rock, throwback New Wave pop, Who-ish guitar anthems, wall-of-sound SST-laden punk rock, a whispered ballad or two, and a few other surprises. While Jeff played almost all the instruments on riverrun, he’ll be joined at the Ivy by a full band of some of the Bay Area’s finest. Come celebrate riverrun’s CD release.
