Artist description Music written in an apartment for people who live in apartments. (that's what matt says) Big honest fragility sung with love and hope. (that's what a famous rock star says.)Matt Curreri is a prolific and introspective singer songwriter. He strikes a chord with many of today's semi-displaced youth through his honest and autobiographical [feeling] lyrics. (that's what Nelson of Rising Sons Records says.)

Artist History Matt has accomplished rock stardom as a member of The Florida Evans Showband and Revue [at the University of Notre Dame]. Majoring in English, Matt developed an aggresively anti-academic lyric vocabulary.Now Matt lives in Richmond Va, with frequent trips to the Washington DC area and Charlottesville VA. I think NYC is coming soon.

Group Members Matt Curreri plays almost all of the instruments on his latest recording. He will be touring in January with Dan O'Brien (white collar crime), Doug McEachern (the butterfly effect), and Nelson Cuellar (Grommit, Rising Sons Records)

Instruments old timey stuff...hollow body and acoustic guitars, tube amps, poorly tuned upright pianos, bad percussion, good songs
