A near life-size oil painting of Jared Mattson hangs on the wall near the band stand inside the Turquoise Lounge in Pacific Beach. You can tell it is Jared and not his twin Jonathan because of the guitar. Jonathan plays drums in the brother’s jazz duo Mattson2.
Feeling Hands, the brother's third full-length CD is being readied for release says their label Galaxic Records. Hands is a blend of sounds including a helping of the M2 specialty, a genre they call surf jazz. Think Chet Baker-meets-Dick Dale. It makes sense, when you consider that the UCSD grads got their professional start by performing their originals and covers at premiers of Thomas Campbell surf flicks.
Feeling Hands is scheduled to drop June 14.
