MATT MALONE & THE HOLY SPIRITS
Matt Malone is an iconoclastic singer-songwriter hailing from the goldfields region of Victoria, Australia.
Matt's bold baritone / tenebrous imagery have often been compared to Michael Gira, Nick Cave, David Eugene Edwards, Mark Lanegan, Johnny Cash. 2023 saw Malone release his critically acclaimed - For The Term Of My Natural Life (VRS Records, CD / Vinyl), solidifying his status as one of the consummate singer-songwriters of the Australian underground.
He'll be joined by James W. du Plessis (Volcanic Honeymoon, The Sea Birds) on drums.

"Malone mines life's dark shadows in a similar way to Nick Cave or foreign antecedents like Merle Haggard and Bob Dylan. It's an album of singular vision, unrelenting in its intensity..."
