   About The Matinees
The Matinees

A San Francisco boy/girl duo, creating stripped-down guitar-based songs that are alternately fervent, bouncy and pensive.

Formed in 2005, The Matinees are PF Dumanis, former keyboardist of glam rock band Blue Period and Jaime Borschuk, former guitarist and vocalist of Plan to Pink. Borschuk also creates low-fi home recordings under the name The Bright Grey Wing.

Wow... I can't believe you guys are playing Mr. T's Bowl in L.A. I had one of the funniest Bassturd gigs ever there. That place is awesome on a level all its own. That'll be a fun gig. Hope all is well.

lo-fi yea...me too but would prefer some higher-fi...it's a money issue. but this group of musicians is getting our shit together and supporting each other to realize all our songs, so...some better recordings are on the way.

thank you much..!!
