Matthew Perryman Jones' new album, The Waking Hours, explores the transformative power of love and life, with Jones seeking creative inspiration from the spirit of different places across the country. From a quiet house in Carbondale, IL to an abandoned missionary college in Tehuacana, TX, Jones let the muse guide his songwriting process, resulting in a collection of songs that flow freely and authentically. Produced by Josh Kaler and Owen Biddle, The Waking Hours serves as a wake-up call to reconnect with what is central in one's life and live from a place of love and wakefulness. Jones emphasizes that being in love is not just about romantic relationships, but about living in a state of love and awareness, whether alone or with someone.
