Matt Henshaw and False Heroes

About Me

The embryonic stages of the Heroes consisted of the duo Matt Herod, 16 and Matt Henshaw, 17 who began playing Henshaws original compositions with extreme intensity like a young Page/Bohnam combo. They later joined up with friend Quinton Ayers, 17 to add bass to the compositions. They play around different venues in Bartow County and are having the times of their lives.Matt Henshaw is a fast rising singer-songwriter from Georgia who combines elements of rock, pop, and folk into some of the best music devoloping today. He has been likened to a young James Taylor or a new Ryan Adams. I hope you all enjoy the music as much as he enjoyed making it. Look for a new record to be released soon through distribution and it is looking to be sensational.
