About Me

If you take the time to picture a modern day troubadour, guitar slung across his back, Matt Mackey should be the first name that comes to mind. More inclined to spend all his time writing songs and performing them for anyone who would listen, it struck him all at once that there could be even better of ways of sharing these songs with the world. He decided to sit down one evening with his guitar and a microphone and record a handful of songs. Mostly for himself, but hopefully songs that would be enjoyed by anyone else who happened to listen to them. If that happens to be you, Iâ€™m sure it would be much appreciated by him to know that the results of many a late night rumination have in some way connected to someone else. Enjoy.
