When people see The Lil Smokies setting up their acoustic instruments, they’re often unprepared for the electric energy they generate.

It’s a perfect mixture of improvisation and composition.

Singer-songwriter Matisyahu has been on journey inward for more than a decade. The journey has been private and public. The journey has at times been explicitly external, even while being driven by internal change. Now nearly thirteen years after the release of his first studio record, Matisyahu and his band have done something unmatched in his past repertoire; they have crafted that journey into a musically thematic eight song movement.
