My name is Matt Roth. I was born in Shawnee, Kansas but I've lived in New York City since 1994. I run Olive Juice Muisic: an independent record label/recording studio/online distirbution store. I play in the bands Schwervon! and Kansas State Flower as well as my solo project Major Matt Mason USA. So far I've recorded 5 Major Matt albums. They are: Rivington '94 and the Tower Years, Me Me Me, Honey Are You Ready For the Ballet?, Bad People Rule The World, and Senile Pie Strive Pip Melancholy. When I'm in town, I also receive and price dry goods at the 4th Street Food Coop on Friday mornings for a couple of hours every week.
