Recommend. Be recommended. The mathematics of the Matrix pulls creators together like gravity. Creating global pathways, global ubiquity, global unity. In a small world great things are possible.

Bio:
Paj is the result of a life shared through music. Led by singer & guitarist Paddy Groenland and his band of superlative musicians - past and present members of Irish trailblazers Hozier, Loah, Ensemble Eriu, Manden Express, Nava, Zaska & Fehdah - Paj's songs emerge from soul, jazz & world music, divulging memories of living in USA, Brazil & West Africa... Imagine Jeff Buckley, Thundercat & Frank Ocean taking turns to discuss Joni Mitchell, while being recorded by Alan Lomax.

Quotes, Notes & Etc.
"As a musician with Ensemble Eriu, RiZa and Feather, Groenland is no stranger to global sounds and new ways of using them. The lead track on his new Nativism EP (“a reference to the current global struggle for identity and ownership”), is a beautiful guitar piece that has an African, jazz, blues and folk in its DNA."

I'm Sparrow. I built this matrix so that every creator on the planet would be conceivably findable and accessible from all others, beginning with musicians in Bahia, Brazil. The matrix combines recommendation by both artificial and human intelligence (human preferred) and the small-world phenomenon (responsible for the fact that most humans are within 6 steps of most others) in a simple but powerful manner which has never been used before.
