With acoustic textures, homegrown production, and a penchant for the unexpected, Jasper\u2019s latest LP arrives March 3, 2023 on For The Records, perfectly timed to \u201cmarch\u201d into spring with wit and warmth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Equal parts dad jokes and digital malaise, Marchin\u2019 Inn draws its charm from Jasper\u2019s fascination with conversational oddities and the absurdities of modern life. With musical roots in early Sufjan Stevens, Jens Lekman, and Loudon Wainwright III, the record plays like a quiet comedy special filtered through a four-track recorder. Tracks like \u201cThe Endless Scroll\u201d tap into lo-fi hip-hop aesthetics while \u201cMiddle Man\u201d and \u201cSwiped Bags\u201d bring out acoustic pop melodies and lyrical miniatures reminiscent of a folk Wes Anderson soundtrack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marchin\u2019 Inn is a cozy yet sharply observant collection of modern folk songs, perfect for fans of quirky storytelling and bedroom pop authenticity. From the marching-band wordplay of \u201cMarching&nbsp;In Like A Man\u201d to the existential doomscrolling of \u201cThe Endless Scroll\u201d and the tender sketch of a post-breakup gift in \u201cSorry Carly, A Gift,\u201d Jasper proves once again that he\u2019s as much a cultural commentator as a singer-songwriter. This is folk for people who tweet too much, fall in love too easily, and still make time for a good pun.<br><br>\u201cI wanted to make a record that felt like a month-long fever dream\u2014the kind you wake up from wondering if that joke you told at work was brilliant or just awkward,\u201d says Jasper. \u201cThese songs started as bits, riffs, and doodles on lunch breaks. Some are about people I know, some are about people I used to be, and some are just about March\u2014the weirdest month. Marchin\u2019 Inn is a little crooked, a little sweet, and definitely written in pencil.\u201d<br><br>Tracklist:<br>Marching In Like A Man<br>Pete, &amp; Re: Pete<br>The Endless Scroll (millennial woes)<br>Middle Man<br>That He Did<br>Sorry Carly, A Gift<br>Swiped Bags<br>Manic Pixie<br><br>Listen, laugh, and loiter a while \u2014 Marchin\u2019 Inn opens its doors March 3rd.<br>For more info:&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/fortherecords.com\/\">fortherecords.com<\/a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/mattjasper.com\/\">mattjasper.com<\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">credits<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>released March 5, 2021<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All songs written, performed, recorded, mixed, and mastered by Matt Jasper.<br>Instrumentation: vocals, guitar, bass, keyboards, banjo, ukulele, drum programming on \u201cThe Endless Scroll.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Matt Jasper Welcomes You To Marchin&#8217; Inn &#8211; A Folk-Pop Suite of Puns, Posts, and Personalities SEATTLE, WA \u2013 Folk-pop songwriter and lo-fi provocateur Matt Jasper returns with Marchin&#8217; Inn, a vibrant and peculiar collection of eight songs weaving together humor, heartbreak, and the millennial condition.
