I'm just completely fucking surprised how well a nordic chap can sing in a rural american accent. Or how he writes such elegantly simple lyrics when English isn't even his first language. Not to be pedantic here, but wooow.

[ascarpaci]

Just saw him open for the Mountain Goats...great stuff!!!

[smcarthur86]

I don't understand why he isn't more popular than all these pop singers today. Not to be too much of a hipster here, but I hate the conformity of the mainstream.

@OptionallySavage You should see his interviews! He sounds almost American.

@ascarpaci We shouldn't put so much talent in one place, in case of natural disaster.

[DeHart1414]

lol i agree

He is just magical. For anyone in D.C. he's playing at the 9:30 Club on Sun. Oct. 3rd. I cannot wait to be in his presence and experience the phenomenon that is Kristian Mattson!

@OptionallySavage Some rural american dialect IS nordic.

The Southern accent as I was told by a Cherokee Indian is an ethnic blend including Kings English spoken with Native American deep mouth vocalizations and cadence.

@OptionallySavage hehe well, we start very early with enligsh here in Sweden :P your right with one thing tho, he's accent is really good!

[darreneedens]

I would kill to see him in such an intimate setting my goodness.

[angryscotchtape]

Just to clarify the confusion, he is playing a guitar based on the martin 00 or a small 000.

@OptionallySavage Most Scandinavians I have met over the years have spoken in perfect english and their grammar probably better than the average native english speaker as they learned it properly in school where as native english speakers tend to get lazy and gramatically they suffer when they try to articulate something. Their accents are the influence of the american and British english accent.
