In today’s stagnant, ringtone-fueled, television-driven music industry, Matty Amendola is a breath of fresh air. Talented, versatile, determined fresh air. Matty has been playing drums professionally since the age of 13, has recorded on a countless amount of albums, and has released two of his own in the past year. He treats his solo projects as truly his own work – every track is self-written, self-produced, and self-performed.
A twenty-year-old Brooklyn native, Matty has been making big moves and is being recognized for his work in the New York City and national music scenes. Don’t let his age fool you – this experienced musician started on drums at age five, and within a few short years he was sneaking into bars and clubs to sit in with as many musicians as possible. As a teenager, Matty started working as a musician for hire, making his mark performing on major television shows and national tours. In the summer of 2008, Matty proved he can do it all with his debut solo release, =Ecstasy.

Very sophisticated arrangements. Tremendous effort...great job. The musical styling is colorful, driving, sensitive and at times, filled with hot buttered funk. I hear in "Life Commercials", an honest soulful musical experience which is everything a new CD should be. Rock on!
