A late summer’s Saturday morning in Moseley, Birmingham. The kettle’s on and the biscuits are being dished out in Artisan Studios.
The recording of the album has been going well, on and off for the past few months. Scott Matthews, a singer-songwriter from Wolverhampton, can see everything coming together. All the ideas that he stockpiled while serving time playing guitar and keeping his mouth shut in other bands. All the passions – from, say, Jimi Hendrix to Ryan Adams via Elliott Smith – that he’s been stoking while shifting boxes in a warehouse. The musical ambition that bubbled away underneath as he made music in a local theatre and conducted workshops in schools.
Now, some final touches are all that are needed for Matthews’ debut album. He’s already had the string quartet in; the vibraphone, flute and clarinet are in the bag. He’s happy with his own playing, with the crunchy riffs, the delicate picking, the occasional slide guitar. But he’s been asking round the Midlands for a tabla player. This Saturday morning, a guy finally shows up. He’s a fortysomething called Sukhvinder Singh Namdhari, born in India but living in Birmingham.
For three hours Namdhari listens to Matthews’ songs and plays along, improvising and jamming and tweaking. He has ten different ideas for ‘Dream Song’, a swirling, epic number that, even in its unfinished state, is a gem – the missing link between Jeff Buckley and Led Zeppelin.
