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.

Friends. How do the seconds turn into days and hours and weeks? What in the actual Axel Foley is going on around here? At any rate - here we are. Episode 60. Sixty. Wow. And what a way to celebrate with an interview featuring the magnanimous magnificent Dean and Kevin from the ever growing multi-faceted hilarious and friend podcast from Wisconsin: Cocktails with Dimples and The Beard. They are known for having a wild array of guests - from adult entertainers and peformers to professional comedians and musicians and just recently connecting with a guest who tracks down child predators and traffickers. We met over the course of the pandemic and became fast friends, and connected on a variety of topics. This podcast became an emotional and therapeutic one for the three of us, as we all chatted openly about being dads of daughters and seeking out the true emotional lighthouses in the storm of this life.

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.
