Story has the power not only to entertain, but to shed light. Matt’s songwriting paints pictures with words. Known to be a storyteller, a poet with a guitar, & a stage banter conversationalist, Matt has delighted audiences from New England to North Carolina, Toronto to Chicago. His album "Wonder of it All" - a collection of songs based on classic works of literature like "The Horse & His Boy" & "Watership Down", released in May 2021.
"Warm sound & heartfelt lyrics. If you are a fan of Josh Ritter, give a listen to Matt!”
- Helen Leicht, WXPN Philadelphia
"Matt really has a way with words. He puts poetry to music really rather than simply writing songs. Very beautiful writing."
- Red Line Roots, Boston
