About Me

Born and raised in the great state of Texas, Matty moved to Nashville in late 2000. For the past decade, Matty has sang and played guitar in several bands spanning a variety of genres from rockabilly, rockn'roll and pop/soul - The Sid Richardsons, Sugar Daddy, Jack Tripper, The Matty Adams Band, J.D. Whittenburg & Trainwreck, Rob Giles and the infamous Fair Warning, his David Lee Roth era Van Halen comedy-rock tribute band. Today, Matty pays the bills as an enetertainment lawyer on Nashville's famed music row and is the President/Owner of RainShine Entertainment Group, an artist management company where he represents acts such as Phil Pritchett (www.philpritchett.com) and Brandi Sellerz. He continues to write, record and perform his own music as well as perform as "Mickey" in Fair Warning (www.fairwarningrocks.com or www.myspace.com/fairwarning).

Sounds Like: I recently heard a fellow musician asked "what two words do you most not want to hear when someone describes your music"?, to which he perfectly answered "sounds-like". I have laughingly adopted this philosophy as my own.
