   Matt Bell: General Info
Member Since1/30/2007
Band MembersRight now, just me. I've played with and for some of the best musicians around - and that's not an understatement - I've been very blessed. But now, it's just little ol' me. And my laptop.
InfluencesPretty much everyone I've ever played with. Put Trip, Todd, Tod, David, Jared, and Billy at the top of the list, though. None of them are violin or trumpet players - just musical mentors and influences.
Sounds LikeExactly like I wanted it to sound - within my ability to reproduce what was happening in my head.

I am an electric violinist, trumpet player, and electronic dabbler.

I started playing music when I was very young - so I don't have any memory of not knowing how to play. However, I've always played with and for other people and not necessarily for myself. So I'm still kind of searching for a voice.

I've always had opinions about how things ought to sound. Fortunately, I've been blessed to play with some awesome talents who sometimes agreed with me and sometimes didn't. I learned from them that things I didn't like might be okay after all. I also learned that some things I did like weren't really so hot.

So my "voice", for lack of a better term, will be a blending of the things I always knew and the things I've learned.

Sometimes, I will try to be fresh, new, innnovative, and creative. Other times, I just want to make something beautiful. If I do my job, you'll know the difference!

Thanks for supporting my music. I'm trying out a new promotion and I need your help! I have a way for you to get a free song from me and share it with your friends at the same time! Here's an MP3 Postcard. It's for my song "She Walks Away”. album cover
Check out the postcard, and listen to the track. You can download it for free! All you need to do is send this postcard to 3 of your friends that you think would like my music. I hope you love it and, once again, thanks for supporting indie music!! Phil Dutra
