Ty Mathis has a sound and look reminiscent of a time when free love, higher consciousness, and loud guitars were all the rage. His image and musical stylings aren’t just a nod to a time he idolizes but a true expression of his life’s passion. With his 5th studio album, Rising, recently released on all major streaming platforms, this young, Newark, Delaware-born and bred singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist shows no signs of slowing down.
