Bio -
Heart Matter is a vibraphone-forward indie jazz band, centering dynamic, original music that makes direct eye contact with the human experience.
With improvisatory elements of jazz and carefully crafted arrangements, alongside intimate lyrics, Heart Matter is electric and honest; akin to the musical sensibilities of Joni Mitchell, Esperanza Spalding, The Bad Plus, Zero 7, and Steely Dan.
Vibraphone, electric bass, and drums form the sonic palette, setting a potent foundation for powerful, timeless vocals. Co-led by vocalist Amy D and vibraphonist Dillon Vado, San Jose natives now living in Oakland, the two composers share a kinship and collaborative spirit; weaving emotionally-chromatic journeys through song.
At once, the lyrics speak to processing loss and invoke the spirits of ancestors. Another song invites mindful appreciation for the dance of life. Or “Talk is Cheap,” for instance, directly confronts the sometimes shallow, transactional nature of small talk and asks for more.
Audiences have been known to experience laughter, tears, and deep self-reflection at Heart Matter shows, often describing the music as…
“Fiery and exciting”
“Deep, elegant, honest”
“The meeting point of impeccable musicianship and catharsis”
More than anything, Heart Matter seeks to share transformative music with those who need to hear it, offering a remedy for the trance of today and a sacred space to feel it all.
