Mawhzy

Mawhzy is the artistic project of Newfoundland-born singer-songwriter Matt Cooke, who has made waves in the indie pop scene since his debut. With roots in the rich musical traditions of his home province—ranging from church bands to jazz and folk—Cooke crafted a sound that uniquely blends hazy vintage synths and dreamy vocals, embodying the essence of 'mawzy' days, a term reflecting foggy and mild days. After relocating to Toronto, Mawhzy found his voice in the bustling city, channeling urban experiences and nostalgic themes into vibrant tracks like "Don’t," "HEADIE," and "NIRVANA" from his discography which resonates with listeners looking for both groove and depth.

His latest work, the album *Long View* released in April 2024, showcases his evolution as an artist and includes the singles "Long View" and "Better Man." Produced by Thom D’Arcy, this album has been spotlighted as one of the most anticipated Canadian releases of the year, capturing the spirit of longing and love through lush, psychedelic pop soundscapes. Mawhzy continues to leave his mark on the music scene with his distinctive style, inviting fans on a sonic journey through his creative world.
