Matt Maeson
Singer/Songwriter, Alternative Pop
Virginia Beach, Virginia
From a truly unique upbringing of his parents playing in a christian heavy metal band, to being barred from listening to traditional rock on the radio, to being a youth performing in bars and prisons with his parent’s outreach ministry, to eventually falling into drug addiction himself and spending time in jail, to ultimately getting out, working a 12 hr/day construction job to getting signed to a major label. Maeson has seen and done it all, on a very accurate “road less traveled” story from god to rags to simple riches. The singer/songwriter welds together the traditional acoustics of a singer/songwriter with pounding, loud, alternative-driven choruses that would give anyone at alt-radio chills up and down their spine. Maeson’s debut album will drop later this year via Atlantic Records - but word is already starting to spread as the young wordsmith has been selling out mid-sized clubs across the US this year. Hear “Hallucinogenics” from his EP The Hearse below.
