Big Search Concert History

Big Search is the solo project of L.A.-based singer/songwriter Matthew Popieluch who first became known for his work with indie rock band Foreign Born, in the mid-2000s. Though he recorded continuously, Big Search's more experimental, lo-fi acoustic folk more or less languished on the back burner for most of its first decade before Popieluch dug in and began making more cohesive pop-oriented statements like 2014's Role Reversal and 2016's Life Dollars, the latter of which came out via Sony-owned 30th Century Records.
