Matt Andersen
(Toronto, Canada)

008

Performance Date

Friday, May 26

This is Matt's first visit to the Kerrville Stage.  Dalis first saw Matt at the ECMA Awards event a couple of years ago and has been trying to get him on stage ever since. 

Matt's sprawling blues/roots and rock musical hybrid, coupled with his grand honey-tinged voice, and enigmatic showmanship has been earning him a fervent following internationally. He began his music career in early 2002 with the New Brunswick band FLAT TOP. Shortly thereafter, Matt went solo debuting at the 2004 East Coast Music Awards and Conference where he played to packed houses. Standing ovations erupted in a feverish euphoria as critics praised and lifelong fans were won over.

That momentum spread throughout that summer as Matt's eclectic and masterful delivery had fans clamoring to catch him live on festival stages. All this was topped off by an ECMA nomination for BEST BLUES RECORDING in 2005.
