A progressive Americana band with a rock edge and fearless attitude for pushing the boundaries of modern roots music.
Combining primal rhythms, melodic and ethereal ballads, screaming guitar riffs with an Appalachian/Celtic vibe this FAMILY born of a family drum circle delivers an authentic tribal and clannish feel that not only draws the audience into the music but into the moment and clan as well.

Life Like Water
Life Like Water is the creation of multi-instrumentalist and singer/songwriter, David Matters. It was initially started as a way for him to process his turbulent past and navigate an uncertain future, but it has since evolved into a communal effort to celebrate the human experience.
Though the compass of the project once pointed in the direction of folk and Americana music, things inevitably began to change when he met his bandmates.
Megan Drollinger (violin/vocals), Charles Furtado (percussion), and Connell Sanderson (flute/Irish whistles) have slowly joined the band over the four years since its creation and have shifted its course with their collective talents. Each member brought with them a unique musical background which has contributed to the blending of styles that the band has become known for.
“Like an indie folk Khruangbin.”

-Dan Rodriguez (Elephant Revival)
“This is definitely some of the most creative, beautiful, and original music I have heard in a while."
-Drew McManus (Satsang)
With a focus on hypnotic rhythms, elegant vocal harmonies, and melodies that contain flavors of Africa, Ireland and the Middle East, the music of this eclectic quartet is sure to uplift and inspire.
