Matt Maye is a talented young singer/songwriter whose songs reflect remarkable honesty and truth. His insightful lyrics and carefully crafted melodies come together in a singular expression of what it means to be alive. Through his music he gives form to the love and loss we experience as well as the hope that keeps us going. Maye's sincere vocals and guitar playing seem to effortlessly reach his audience through the universal appeal of his songs. He is tangible proof of music as it is meant to be: emotional, powerful, and transforming.
With the release of his debut EP, Matt Maye has begun to make his own mark on the music world. Halfway There is a 5 song EP that expresses with remarkable precision emotions which we have all experienced and it has received radio and internet play in the US, Canada, and Australia. Matt has quickly become a favorite performer on the club scene where he has gained a loyal following among live music fans. Now, with his latest single, I Love You Is That Okay, Matt Maye continues to raise the bar of excellence that he has already set for himself. It is a rewarding and revealing glimpse of a unique artist who doesn't disappoint.

that's good to hear. Mine was nice and quiet at home with the folks and my bro. Hey, can you do me a favor ? Introduce me to Taylor Swift . I figured you probably know someone in her circle .
I'm good , Matt. I had a very nice holiday with some friends and family. I'm still at Barnes since I haven't found work in the auto mechanics field. I've also started writing and working on a sci fi story. I'm glad you had a good one.
