Matt Reynolds: is a singer-songwriter from Bristol in the UK; a purveyor of sunny yet soulful melodic acoustic-based pop. A veteran of England's South West music scene; Matt cut his teeth in several bands playing everything from pop rock to metal and all that comes in-between.
He is also our host for SongSmith this evening.
Matt has been described as 'the English Jason Mraz' but his influences are wide and far reaching; ranging from acoustic luminaries such as James Taylor and Neil Young, contemporary solo artists like Gavin DeGraw and Paulo Nutini, country rock bands Counting Crows and Zack Brown Band through to the pillars of the grunge and alternative rock scene Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots and Soundgarde
Matt also writes a brutally honest blog detailing his struggles in music called The Making Of A Musician - sometimes funny, sometimes painful, always inspiring. His goal with this is to lay bare all the ups and downs of being an independent musician and provide insight and hope to young aspiring musicians everywhere.
