Feel free to “Like,” share, or comment on the review!
More updates coming soon! Lots of shows on the way and perhaps a good bit of new music, too!
Thanks for the support, as always!

Is the year 2011 really half-over already? Insane.
Shows have been going well. In fact, this year’s Starbuck’s is likely the best performance of my young career, and I really mean that. I actually felt like I sounded as on-pitch as I do in rehearsal, and the overall audience response was extremely encouraging. There will be plenty of other shows on the schedule this summer, so keep an eye out for updates on that front.
I’ve been hard at work on new material, as the attendees of this summer’s first Starbuck’s event were likely to have noticed. I’m attempting to write every single day of this summer, and to eventually produce 9-12 really high-caliber compositions. I’ve got a handful of keepers already- “Your Beauty Conjures,” “Flight and Falling,” “Squares of Pavement,” and perhaps a few others.
I want this next record to be a bit more accessible, enjoyable, and more focused on melody. Nine songs total, probably. Looking at a tentative title of something like Songbook, Volume I; Sounds; or just plain Two. Nothing too fancy, as you can tell.
Depending on the schedule of some other folks, I might have some exciting news to reveal to you all shortly. But, until then, my lips are sealed. Let’s just say that it relates to getting new music to your ears (hopefully very) soon.
In the meantime, please consider taking the poll below. Which album title seems to fit, in accordance with the recently released demos and new material?
As always, thank you guys so much for the support! I appreciate it more than ever these days..
Sincerely,
Matt
