Matt and Kim hit S.F. amid wellsprings of joy...


S.F. Weekly said that Matt and Kim's "updated take on early-90s (music) is as American as the most colloquial heartland rock." Like John Mellencamp, no doubt. "Matt takes the reins with his brash but endearing vocals, while Kim's driving backbeats provide the anchor. Their latest album comprises simple, irrestible nuggets of pop confection. ... Grand (their second and soon-to-be-released CD) is a testament to the power of uncompicated hooks... Matt and Kim's rapid rise to indie fame may be mystifying to some, but these kids are clearly doing something right."

Joe Blankholm of Flavorpill said, "It's hard to keep a grin off your face as you watch Matt & Kim tap into their seemingly bottomless wellsprings of joy."

Want to be there at the creation, or near it? You can see Matt and Kim play live for a cover charge of only $10 at the Cafe du Nord at 2174 Market Street in San Francisco, on Monday, February 2, 2009, at 8:00 p.m. Call (415) 861-5016 for information.

Years from now people who weren't there are going to swear that they were!

Note: The Cafe du Nord has no connection to the Nordstrom department store on Market Street.

  1. The people who say anything about Nordstrom being in any way involved are the one swearing they were there who weren't. Cafe Du Nord is a couple miles up Market Street from Nordstrom. I've seen lots of live music there and it's a regular venue. The SF Weekly must be really confused.
