PEARL JAM frontman Eddie Vedder will release the "Matter Of Time" bundle on Friday, December 25 via Monkeywrench/Republic Records. Just in time for Christmas, he expands on the previously released two-track set and collects a series of acoustic songs and covers performed and recorded throughout 2020. He presents all of these tracks together for the first time in one comprehensive collection which also includes an acoustic cover of Bruce Springsteen's song "Growin' Up". Among the additions, the project includes a powerful acoustic rendition of "Future Days" from the 2020 Game Awards, which he performed remotely and beamed into the show. The track originally concluded PEARL JAM's 2013 tenth album "Lightning Bolt" and also appeared in the blockbuster video game "The Last of Us Part II" as a tearful and poignant goodbye between main characters Ellie and Joel. Meanwhile, "Matter Of Time" includes emotionally charged and energetic at-home performances of classics "Porch" and "Just Breathe" captured for Amazon. Vedder initially introduced "Matter Of Time" with the title track "Matter Of Time" and "Say Hi". He personally premiered both songs as part of Venture Into Cures.
