Mat Kearney

The Oregon to Nashville, Boy Wonder. But really, where did he come from?

His Magic?

A heart of gold that weighs on love, commitment, and truth.
Vocals that confidently - in the quietest way - call us all to action.

What a lucky discovery, Mat Kearney, was for me! I heard some song on the radio, that was cool, kinda' mellow, not trying - just being - worth it. The guy's voice sounded, to me, a cross between Adam Duritz (of Counting Crows) and Chris Martin (of Coldplay), but it wasn't either. So I had to investigate.


Sometimes you do find that pot of gold.


A thing of pure beauty is what Mat Kearney's first full length album is.
Nothing Left To Lose uses 'spoken word,' sweet, sweet vocals and, simple soulful acoustics. It sings stories of triumph, perseverance and love.

Live, and in person, he is gracious and humble - but he, generously, puts is all out there and gives it all away.
