M. Ward
Although originally from California, it was on the folk scene in Portland
(Oregon) that Matt Ward made his name as Mr. Ward. Over the years, the bucolic
tones of this accomplished musician's compositions have established him as one
of the stalwarts of American folk, with albums such as Hold Time (2009) and
collaborations with the supergroup Monsters of Folk and the duo She & Him, with
actress Zooey Deschanel. In 2012, Mr. Ward returns solo with the successful A
Wasteland Companion.
