On the whole, the thing that is most apparent about this EP is the irrefutable fact that Mr. Jones knows his music. This is a very mature sounding band comprised of two talented, but equally ambitious young men.
-Wade Kelly The Lawrencian
The drummers behind local standouts New Franklin Panthers and Lawrence Letterday have formed Newmatica. But Jason Jones and Isaac Flynn don't just get together to compare paradiddles. No, the two reveal talents on stringed instruments and vocals in addition to their rhythmic prowess, resulting in a project that is melodic, edgy and unpredictable.
