About the artist

Matching Mole

Ah, Matching Mole. The band that famously took their name from a French translation mishap of Soft Machine. Led by the incomparable Robert Wyatt, they were a force to be reckoned with in the 70s progressive rock scene. Wyatt's distinctive voice, combined with his unique drumming style, set Matching Mole apart from their contemporaries. Their self-titled debut album, released in 1972, showcased their experimental sound and garnered critical acclaim. However, their success was short-lived. After just two albums, internal conflicts led to the band's demise. But the legacy of Matching Mole lives on, with their influence still felt in the world of avant-garde music. Wyatt's solo career has only solidified his status as a musical genius. From his hauntingly beautiful covers of classic songs to his politically charged original compositions, Wyatt's work continues to captivate audiences around the world. Matching Mole may not have had the longevity of some of their peers, but their impact on the music world cannot be understated. So, if you find yourself in need of some truly innovative sounds, look no further than Matching Mole. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
