hey all, i would like to urge everyone to check out upcoming singer/songwriter matt nathanson. if you are at all interested in singer/songwriters i can pretty much guarantee you will be impressed by matt. his website is http://www.mattnathanson.com.

i have seen him twice this fall and he is energetic, disarmingly funny, and extremely talented in addition to being very very nice and down to earth. so check him out :D

aaaah good old matt, him, howie day and jason mraz are set to be the new big singer songwriters, and all have been influenced, partly, by my man Dave Matthews.

 

jason and matt get along very well, as do howie and matt (well ok all three d0) and all are very talented. check out there stuff...of that trio mentioned matt is the lesser known.

lesser known but in my opinion most talented :D

matt also cites U2 as a huge influence, and plays an excellent cover of radiohead's 'fake plastic trees'... similar to howie... but matt is also a big lover of 80s hair band rock... and often leads sing alongs to bon jovi's 'living on a prayer'. he also plays some cat stevens covers... its impossible to put him in a box. he rules. :)

i would say howie is the most talented of the lot, simply because i'm in constant awe of his use of machines during his shows to create backing tracks, of how he turns his usually one man show so that it sound slike he has a full band up there with him.

i do agree the howie live experience rocks... but im not sure how that translates to him playing with a full band-- a crossover experience i think mn will also have trouble with...

i think that matt is definitely the strongest lyricist though. :)

ask him if he needs any openers for any future shows in the Atlanta area :D :D :D :D

he doesn't suck

I like his music :) In August he will release a new album.
