"Matthew Shaw is a musician who isn't setting boundaries on his sound. I'm
consistently impressed with the records he puts out and his latest project
"With Friends Like These" is no exception. Armed with a full band, trading
soft melodies for an emotional rock scream, this record is a stand out in
his collection of releases and one of my favorites so far." - Lisa Wood @ KUFO 101.1FM
Seattle's answer to Bright Eyes..." - John Richards - Program Director & DJ @ KEXP 90.3 / 91.7FM
"Matthew Shaw constructs fun, smart pop songs with a sound that hints at a Postal Service influence, but in his own unique way. He's very talented, and the record (Ghosts in the Concrete) is solid beginning to end..." - Lisa Wood - DJ @ Funky Monkey 104.9FM & KEXP 90.3 / 91.7FM
"Matthew Shaw plays simple, emotional electropop-a la the Postal Service, were they fronted by Bright Eyes. Shaw has taken sensitive-guitar-strummer syndrome to the next level, lamenting over icy synths and stuttering drum machines about issues that cloud both his heart and his effects processors. " - Jennifer Maerz @ The Stranger
"Once in a while someone comes up with something different that works extremely well, usually because of a unique way of looking at music. Matthew Shaw's music is clever, well structured, based on pop but constructed with a fair amount of electronica, which he uses to take us out into deeper waters. He'll grab you with a pop vibe built on something as minimal as a bare electronic drum beat and a distorted electric piano playing single bass notes under his vocals, and then everything will stop and melt into an exquisitely surreal wash of atmospheric sound..." - DJ Johnson - Music Editor @ Cosmik Debris Magazine
