Robert Matarazzo

About Me

"One of the hardest working indie musicians, Matarazzo has played all across the U.S. and Canada. Redefining the "art of looping" style by constructing songs as you listen, first creating groove, then background vocals followed by blistering or heartwrenching guitar solos." -Asbury Press

"Awesome!! ...this is what happens when Radiohead meets James Taylor in a dark ally." -L.A. Times

"The best thing to happen to the L.A. music scene in 10 years!"-BAM Magazine

"His voice has a stunning, shimmering quality" -Billboard Magazine

"New Jersey's FINEST singer/songwriter" -Asbury Press
