Announcing Penny Riddle! A new EP from Matthew Loiacono! Following on the heels of his Kentucky album, this recording features eight one-minute songs – small bites of organized sound.

Written and recorded in three days, Penny Riddle finds Matthew incorporating electronic beats and sounds this time around. Married to the acoustic instruments he is known for employing, this recording is a stepping stone towards a more refined and exciting sound.
