Graventown
A kindness, positivity, mental health and music-magic-based informal conversational town hall created, authored, and produced by award winning Canadian singer songwriter and ex-journalist Matty McKechnie (known musically as Graven). Whether he has acclaimed or interesting pals, comedians, musicians or artists to interview - or even if it's just a solo-yolo convo that he "sends into the universe", Matty would always want you to know that you - whoever and wherever you are - are ALWAYS welcome in Graventown.

Pals. I'm back with some solo yolo yeet Graven tidings for your G-town sundown fomo. I don't know what that means, but I felt semi cool writing it. It's a hard and fun and sad and happy season we are in, and I just wanted to airdrop you some digital love. I hope you are uplifted, in whatever state of the pre-holiday tinseltown gerbil maze that you're skittering through. Keep chasing those dreams. You are loved.
Also - I'm playing some shows along the frosty December Ontario trail and I'd love to see yer mugs.

My new album "Geographics" is releasing (on my Bandcamp page only) through late January into late February 2026, and every Monday and Friday of those months, I'll have a new song up for you to digest into your ear canals. You can preorder the digital, cd and vinyl versions of the album, (which helps me greatly) but I understand that cash is tight all over the map, so you can also order a five dollar Geographics sticker. 5 beans! This album is really special to me (as my friends Melissa Payne and Charles Austin played all over it) and I hope you'll come along for the supersonic ride. Follow me @gravencanada on all the socials, and check my website to see when I'm playing live in a town near you. Join Graventown today to support yours truly for only 8 clams a month.
