Porchlight Arts & Hospitality network presents Matt Wheeler at Prattville Gallery.
"A Hard History of Love", Matt's new suite of songs & stories, is inspired by short stories by Wendell Berry. Fellow Berry fans will appreciate the musical re-imagining of these timeless stories of the Port William community; listeners can appreciate the rich & wildly creative sonic textures that the brilliant team at Old Bear Studios joined Matt in making.
"The way we are, we are members of each other. All of us. Everything."
