Live At The Warehouse: Side B
Twenty-two years ago, Matt Singer's kindergarten teacher recommended
that he be seen by a child psychologist for a formal evaluation.The
doctor said this:
Although he exhibits skills in many areas, he seems unable to deal
with frustration. When presented with something unfamiliar, his
typical response is 'I can't,' rather than 'I'll try.' He was referred
for testing to determine whether he is unable or simply unwilling to
try new things.
Nowadays, Matt tries new things on stage and in recordings, telling
his listeners all about his ugly demons while blending social
commentary and humor. He writes personal and expressive music,
bridging folk, alternative, and hip-hop, to share genuine feelings
about family, romance, anxiety, higher education, and occasionally New
Jersey.
Over the past few years, Matt has been filling rooms and gaining
recognition. NYC crowds have enjoyed him at such venues as the Living
Room, Bitter End, Sidewalk Cafe, Pianos and Rockwood Music Hall and
last year, Matt was recognized by The Mid-Atlantic Song Contest,
winning the Director's Prize for his song "Man with a Can ".
The year before, he received honorable mention for "Scary," in the
John Lennon Songwriting Contest.
Matt has released three albums, made his Family Records debut on
Cross-Pollination: The Mixtape Vol. 1, and will be releasing a
very special EP Winter of 2007.
