Bring an open mind and an open ear to a Matt Cross show. A set that opens with a sound like James Taylor could end sounding like Snoop Dogg, Bossa Nova, or the Violent Femmes. Just as soon as you start to swoon when he starts to croon, you'll get your feet rocked by the beatbox while the singer smiles with the fingerstyle! You never know what's coming next!
No matter whether it's love, loss, eating disorders, road-worn traveling, political assassination, psycho-sexual self-unravelling, television addiction, or getting bent down at the local watering hole, no topic is off limits at Matt Cross's musical buffet! There is truly something for everyone!
... but, don't take our word for it!
"What's most impressive about Matt is how, being a young musician, he has figured out how to appeal to an audience of just about any age or musical interest. At the same table a grandmother may become sentimental after hearing an arrangement of an old jazz standard such as "Misty", after a father just got done rocking out to his favorite classic Santana tune, all the while his young son is being inspired by Matt's fresh originals which combine modern pop stylings with folk and roots rock." -Willy O'Riley (Lovin' Cup, Entertainment Director, Rochester, NY)
So, come on out to the Matt Cross show for a night of original songs like windows into the artist's heart and mind, and surprise covers and medleys that keep you guessing every step of the way! You won't regret it, and you won't forget it!
