Quotes

“Matt’s material oscillates easily between singer-songwriter folk and blues, and his guitar playing is sharp as a nail” – Ian Fitzgerald on his awesome blog.

“At Buskin & Batteau’s Radio B&B WPKN Nerfa showcase this November, the womenfolk were all pretty warmed up from us and our brilliant musical pals, but when Matt started singing, it turned Nerfa’s whole mountainside hotel from The Shining to the Borrello Bordello. Like young Elvis with a Martin. This kid is tu-rouble with a capital TU– for Talent Unlimited.” -Robin Batteau
