There is a spirit that hovers above the waters. It has been here since the beginning of creation, yet it is just being born. Ancient Child is Matisyahu’s 8th full-length studio album. In Jewish mysticism, eight is the number beyond the natural cycle of the physical world. As Matisyahu brings forth his eighth studio album, the Ancient Child simultaneously reaches back in time and towards the future, in search of the infinite divine light of redemption. Here, Matisyahu reconnects with his Jewish identity and spirituality in a post-October 7th world.

As a true artist, Matisyahu is not concerned with reproducing the sounds of a specific genre; he is only interested in what moves the emotion and prepares the runway for his concepts to land. He writes about his experiences, including hopes, challenges, and fears. Authenticity is always at the core.

In reference to the album’s title, Matisyahu presents a meditation on Jewish history, his role as a father, and his yearning for a better future, in which the metaphorical sun/son rises to move beyond limitations.

Presented in partnership with the Boulder Theater.
