Daudi Matsiko Biography
It takes a special quality to stand out in the often oversaturated singer-songwriter field, but somehow Daudi Matsiko manages. His down-toned and husky vocal invites you in as a listener, asking you to really listen to the tales that he is telling, all the while accompanied by the delicate meandering of his acoustic guitar.
Born and raised in the United Kingdom, Ugandan singer-songwriter and guitarist Daudi Matsiko carefully crafts modern albeit reverent folk.
Deft, melancholic picking reminiscent of Nick Drake is tempered by contemporary percussion and instrumentation, and Matsiko’s vocals derive their strength from their seeming fragility, a warble in notes that may or may not be intentional. With every song, his confessional lyrics cut to the marrow.
After releasing two independent EPs, A Brief Introduction to Failure and The Lingering Effects of Disconnection, he signed to Naim Records and has toured with GoGo Penguin, Keaton Henson, Portico Quartet whilst also being a successful graduate of the Red Bull Music Academy in Montreal.
