Info zu That's My Cue: A Solo Experience

One of his generation’s most fearless singer/songwriters, Matt Maeson has endlessly proven the powerful impact of fully revealing his demons and damage. With the arrival of 2019’s Bank On A Funeral, the 29-year-old Virginia native made history as the first male solo artist to earn two #1 Alternative Radio hits from a debut album, thanks to the smash success of the unforgettably confessional singles “Hallucinogenics” and “Cringe” (both of which went platinum). Now boasting over a billion streams, including his collaboration with Lana Del Rey on a remix of “Hallucinogenics,” the Nashville-based musician returns with his sophomore album Never Had To Leave—a revelatory body of work that embodies a newfound hopefulness, yet reinforces the raw intensity and unapologetic truth-telling that have defined Maeson’s music from the very start.

"That's My Cue: A Solo Experience", will be released on Friday, September 27. Recorded over the course of 30 shows during his intimate 2023-2024 one-man headline run in venues including Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium, Denver’s Mission Ballroom, and The UK’s Brixton Electric, That's My Cue: A Solo Experience.

“When I wrote ‘That’s My Cue', I was having a lot of internal arguments about what I wanted my career to look like,” says Matt Maeson. “The song was born out of looking at how I had begun to base my self-worth on the impact of my music. I was so obsessed with success that it became a measurement of how I was living my life. On tour, I’d get this constant rush of validation. It stopped with the Pandemic, so I had to sit with myself and reevaluate things. I started every night with ‘That’s My Cue’. I’m basically saying, ‘My career has changed me and how I view myself. However, I’ve still got to get up on stage and do my job, regardless. That’s my cue.’” ​​

Maeson embarked on a solo acoustic That’s My Cue tour across Europe in 2022. He next brought the tour to North America, selling out gigs coast-to-coast throughout 2023 and 2024. Inspired by the response, Maeson decided to record 30 shows and assemble what would become That’s My Cue: A Solo Experience. Among the 20-track collection’s many standouts are simultaneously chilling and comforting live renditions of such fan favorites as “Hallucinogenics,” “Cringe,” “Grave Digger,” and “Cut Deep,” concluding with an upbeat and undeniable performance of “Legacy.”

“This record is definitely for the fans,” he adds. “So many listeners have gravitated to the stripped-down versions of the songs, because they relate to the context and lyrics. I wanted to share this music in the most real and authentic way. I’m excited to see what happens next.”

Matt Maeson
Soul-baring singer/songwriter Matt Maeson hails from Virginia Beach, VA, where his parents played in Christian heavy-metal bands, and he was barred from listening to rock on the radio. Maeson grew up traveling with his parents' outreach ministry, gaining unlikely experience by performing in prisons and biker rallies. He himself fell into drugs, and then into jail, eventually getting out and working construction for 12 hours a day while doing community service on his days off. While his parents may not approve, rock influences like Johnny Cash, Kurt Cobain and Jeff Buckley radiate through his alternative/indie sound. These inflections come alive on Maeson's debut single "Cringe," which combines the stark urgency of his past with catchy pop songwriting. "Cringe" is lifted off Maeson's debut EP, Who Killed Matt Maeson, which follows the artist's first headlining US tour presented by Communion, founded by Mumford & Sons' Ben Lovett. Maeson drove from venue to venue alone in a humble Hyundai, creating the EP's six songs on the road. Who Killed Matt Maeson includes the stand out confessional "Me And My Friends Are Lonely," which was written on a whiskey-infused night of loneliness in the middle of Iowa.
