Matt Boyer

About Me

"His lyrics reflect a strong everyman mentality while his fingers pick and strum heartbreaking chords that will haunt the listener long after he has stepped off the stage." -Vail Daily
"Boyer's songwriting is a graceful experiment in making the plainspoken melodic. His folk songs are quiet meditations on life's small details. The intimate portraits are intricately written character studies that dodge clichés and lay the paint on artfully thick." -Ricardo Baca (Denver Post)
"One of Colorado's most brilliant singer-songwriters. An all-around super player, Boyer brings the street cred to Colorado that he earned as the guitar player for too-cool-for-school band Sun Kil Moon." -Denver Post
"Sukuinage presents Boyer..s solo singer/songwriter debut, a six-song EP of gently powerful acoustic tunes. His soothing voice has a depth and country-folk quality about it that leads his intricate compositions with a quiet confidence." -Miles of Music
"Boyer is a thin guy, but creates a huge sound from his voice and guitar ... Boyer branches away from simply splashing lyrics on top of open chords ... Boyer is a strong songwriter who can write unique songs while maintaining his signature voice." -Summit Daily News
"Boyer sinks his teeth into the darker corners of life and relationships to come up with an EP of considerable measure." -INtake Weekly
