Be sure to check out Matt’s official musician channel on YouTube.com!:



On his 2004 release, Overtones, CDBaby.com says: "Intimate and tonally rich, Overtones resonates with original tunings in a layered accoustic framework from this new American voice. It’s a nourishing collection of music and poetry, from sublime and playful, to intense and dark. Only 11g net carbs."

   About Matt Caplan


About Matt:
Matt is a native New Yorker who has been writing and playing his own music for over a decade. An accomplished guitar player, he has produced 2 all acoustic albums, ranging in influence from folk to rock to classical, of which he has sold thousands of copies. A diligent self-promoter, he has toured in over 30 states, building a fanbase through college campuses, local bars, music venues, record sales and downloads. His second cd Overtones (2004) moved instantly to the “Top Seller” category on cdbaby.com, and his MySpace site has garnered over 6,000 friends to date. He can often be seen playing in New York at The Bitter End, Knitting Factory, Crash Mansion, CBGB’s gallery, and many other venues. He is currently working on his first full-band record release.


CURRENT PROJECT:

Matt is currently appearing in the first-ever Broadway revival of Rodgers & Hammerstein's "South Pacific"! It is being mounted by Lincoln Center and is playing at the Vivian Beaumont Theatre in NYC. BUY TICKETS HERE!


MOST RECENT PROJECTS:

Matt did a guest-star stint as a character named Terry Walters in episode 6 of the 1st season of the TV show "NEW AMSTERDAM" on Fox. The episode is called 'Legacy' and first aired 3/31/08.

Matt was part of both the National Tour and Broadway casts of RENT, on and off for over nine years, having understudied and played virtually all the male ensemble roles at least once, and then understudying and performing the leading role of Roger... but most fans will know him for his portrayal of the other leading role of Mark, which he played in well over 1,000 performances since 1999. Matt's final show in Broadway's RENT took place on January 20th, 2008. He played the role of Gordon during that performance.

Matt appeared in Julie Taymor's recent movie musical, "Across the Universe"! It opened October 12th, 2007 and is available on DVD and you can buy the soundtrack on iTunes!

You were absolutely amazing tonight! I feel so blessed to be able to say that I was front and (slightly) center to witness it all. Positively mind-blowing and it reminded me of why you're one of my favorite stage actors.
I can't wait to see it again.
Btw: you're still my favorite Mark ever.

My friend told me about it this morning and I nearly flipped my lid. The cast sounds like it's going to be amazing, and I can't wait to come see you in action again. You're still basically my favorite Mark ever, by the way. Ahhh I can't wait!! I'm sure it's going to be BEYOND amazing!

i have no idea if you check this. i'm not on myspace much either anymore. i just found overtones and a whole slew of live tracks of yours and have been reliving a whole separate life of mine through them. i remember sitting in my room in high school and listening to the road less traveled on repeat all too well. i think i might have written lyrics of yours on the board in homeroom once. haha. anyway, thank you more than you could ever know for touching me then and somehow still doing so now.

The Craic Festival 2009 has invited FairplayCollective to play at this years Festival. All members will be playing in the round. The show is at The Mercury Lounge, March 14th at 8pm. This is the last night of the festival and Foy Vance is also on the bill. What more can I say, a great night for music and film, with the odd star thrown in. Come show your support.
