Hailing from a small New England town, Matthew Stubbs is quickly
gaining a reputation as one of the premier Blues guitarists. Whether
performing with his own band or as a sideman to some of the best singers in the business, the 25 year old always delivers a mesmerizing performance.
Currently, Matthew Stubbs is performing with The Legendary Charlie
Musselwhite Band. Before joining The Charlie Musselwhite Band Stubbs did time with R&B Sensation John Nemeth and also spent a year and a half touring North America with diva Janiva Magness. Matthew Stubbs can also be found doing select tours/shows with Lynwood Slim,Junior Watson, Sax Gordon, Brian Templeton and many other top acts.
Stubbs has earned himself a reputation for his ability to write
tremendously catchy instrumentals. He even went as far as to form a
band just to focus strictly on writing instrumentals. The songs which he
composes are a cocktail of Memphis Soul, Blues, R&B, Surf, Rock n’ Roll and Groove, all perfectly mixed together. His real knack is being able to blend all of these styles without overwhelming the listener.
Blues guitarist Rick Holmstrom sums it up best: “"The thing I like best
about Matt Stubbs playing is that he leaves space. There are plenty of
young blues guitarists who can play a whole lot of guitar, and Matt can
hang with 'em all, but there are very few who understand that it's
important to let it breathe. I dig the economy and simplicity of Matt's
playing. He's got an old soul."
In August 2008 Matthew Stubbs will be releasing his first Solo CD
"Soul Bender" on the VizzTone Label Group. This record will feature 11
Soulful all original instrumentals.
Hey man, I had fun jamming with you last night, you'll have to explain that Jack Myers bass thing I heard you whip out during a solo. See you around soon.
