Charlie Peacock (producer, The Civil Wars) has this comment about the new CD: "Matthew Perryman Jones' new full length, The Land of the Living has had a very strong effect on me. I actually got chills and shed a tear or two listening to it. Just when you think you might be getting a little jaded, music like this comes along and saves you from a hardened heart and makes you feel human again. Thank you MPJ. This is why we make music."
MPJ's latest album, Land of the Living was produced by Cason Cooley, recorded in Round Top, Texas and funded by online donations from Jones’ loyal fan base. Although you may not instantly recognize his name, you will undoubtedly know his voice, as MPJ’s songs have been featured in numerous television shows including Grey’s Anatomy, Pretty Little Liars, and One Tree Hill, including recent feature film, What to Expect When You're Expecting.
Land of the Living is available on iTunes or on Matthew Perryman Jones' website, www.mpjmusic.com
