Thin Lear, the eclectic project of NY-raised, NJ-based songwriter Matt Longo, evokes the haunting melodies and glimmering production work of 70's-era studio obsessives. Recording and performing with a collective of NYC musicians, Longo is driven by an immersive, idiosyncratic recording process inspired by songwriters in the Elephant 6 collective and melodicists & storytellers like Harry Nilsson, Kate Bush, Leonard Cohen, and Shuggie Otis.
Thin Lear's sprawling story songs pull from a rich palate of instrumentation and arrangements, from ornately orchestrated ballads to spectral folk and propulsive grooves, with narratives inspired by inexplicable events, forgotten outsiders and deeply personal obsessions. Find him on Instagram, Tiktok or his personal website for more information.
