Matt Berry, acclaimed for his 2021 album The Blue Elephant, returns with his eighth studio album, Heard Noises. Following a notable collaboration with KPM label on library music, Berry presents an eclectic journey into Californian psychedelia, departing from his previous British psych influences.

The album, available in a stunning label-exclusive gatefold edition on psychedelic swirl color vinyl, as well as sky blue LP, soft-pack CD, and retro cassette, also introduces a limited edition 8-track cartridge for collectors.

Lead single "I Gotta Limit' features Kitty Liv (Kitty, Daisy and Lewis), weaving a narrative of second chances amid infectious musicality inspired by Sly Stone. This track blends Northern Soul with psych influences, showcasing Berry's knack for catchy, genre-spanning compositions.

Heard Noises showcases Berry's versatility as a multi-instrumentalist, handling guitars, bass, and a range of keyboards including Moogs, Vox, Farfisa, and Mellotron. Long-time collaborator Craig Blundell on drums adds depth, while guest appearances by celebrated actress Natasha Lyonne, Eric D. Johnson (The Shins/Fruit Bats), and others enrich the album's experience.

From the haunting melodies of tracks like "Sky High" featuring Rosie McDermott to the expansive soundscape of "Why On Fire?," Berry's production skills and songwriting prowess shine throughout. Heard Noises celebrates Berry's musical evolution, offering a blend of space pop, rock, and eerie undertones that captivate from start to finish.

In many ways, Heard Noises represents a culmination of Matt Berry's diverse musical journey as it offers an immersive experience for both longtime fans and newcomers alike.
