Sigmon's Solo CD is New Smart Pop Rock for Hungry Adult Audience
Sigmon's premiere solo release "One Opens Up" addresses an all-too-noticeable absence of intelligent, world-wise pop music. This thirteen song collection is an engaging piece of work that aspires to re-energize the genre for adults who grew up believing that music needed substance as well as style to be great.
This self-performed, self-produced collection of catchy, witty observations has culminated from a decade of contemplation and introspection. Navigating in and around established pop territory, Sigmon layers Beatle-esque harmonies on top of Matthew Sweet pop sensibilities, and sprinkles in a quirkiness that is reminiscent of Peter Gabriel. Songs like "Millennium Man" take stock of humanity's current state after "three million years of evolution" while "Possibility"'s backbeat smacks of Elvis Costello's "Pump It Up". These thirteen tracks forge a sound that recalls many influences, yet is clearly unique, inspiring many more listens.
Sigmon first appeared on MTV in 1985 as songwriter, lead guitar and vocalist of The Basics (Danville, IL). He went on to form the band, Rain People (Atlanta), signing with Epic/CBS and publishers Warner Brothers Music/Made Up Music. Rain People recorded their self-titled debut album (1989) in Santa Monica, CA with producer/engineer Bill Drescher. They received critical acclaim as CD Review's "Editor's Choice - Year's 25 Best" and gained international attention.
In the early 90's Matthew and his wife Julie began experimenting in the studio with ambient compositions. The result was their highly regarded 30-minute piece called "Sleeping Through The Rain". The recording was embedded with The Monroe Institute's patented Hemi-Sync technology, which has garnered an impressive list of documented therapeutic applications in clinical and research settings for conditions like autism, insomnia, pain relief, accelerated learning and healing.
