Lorrie Matheson is a Calgary-based singer-songwriter, producer, and alt-rock lifer who’s been a staple of Canada’s indie scene since the ’90s. A founding member of the gritty alt-country group National Dust and later the garage-rock outfit The Von Zippers, Matheson carved out a reputation for raw, emotionally charged songwriting. His solo work blends wry lyricism with ragged Americana and lo-fi charm, showcased in releases like *The Night Is for Sleepers* and *Rebels United*. Beyond his own music, he’s a sought-after producer/engineer at his Archaudio studio, collaborating with artists like Carolyn Mark and helping shape Alberta’s DIY sound. Recent projects like *Tolerance. (A Tribute to Grant Hart.)* highlight his enduring punk spirit and reverence for underground legends. Whether solo or with bands, Matheson remains a fiercely independent voice, equally at home with twangy balladry or feedback-drenched grit.
