Info zu Matthew Austin Hunt

Some say, “It is never too late to fulfill your dreams.” Matthew Austin Hunt, after a lifetime away from his passion for music, has recently released his first singles “Bye London Bye” and “American Made” for 2020. Despite the details of his life, Matthew was unable to escape from his musical instincts. He was inspired by his grandfather’s musical influence during his childhood.

Hunt takes refuge in an evident country sound. However, his musical influences take a distant path from the newer development trends within the country genre. Matthew Austin Hunt seems to flirt with the classic country-style sounds from the 90s.

“Bye London Bye” is a simple musical arrangement with some very well interpreted sound nuances. This song efficiently links country styles with folk music, and even edges with the simplicity of pop music.

The vocal conditions of this singer are impressive when listening. The warmth of his vocal projection and his wide interpretive register are striking. Matthew transits with impressive equanimity, from extremely low notes to high pitched sounds all within his diverse vocal range.

This fresh single from Hunt could be a powerful start to a new artistic songwriting career. The musical quality of his proposal is excellent. Additionally, the content of the lyrics within this song is feasible to connect with an audience that prefers a more ballad-country style. I hope the rest of the album follows the same path.

The musical trajectory of Matthew Austin Hunt was probably set for him when he was only 7. His grandfather, a Los Angeles recording artist in the late 1940’s, bought him his first guitar, and he was hooked.

As a musician, his influences are vast. From the records his father played (like Jerry Jeff, Willie, and Merle, in addition to artists like CCR, Bill Withers, and Stevie Wonder) to crooners of his grandfather’s era like Perry Como, Bing Crosby, and Johnny Mathis, Hunt draws from a deep well of long-established classics. His own, more primary influences as a songwriter include the likes of Lyle Lovett, Robert Earl Keen, Jackson Browne, James Taylor, Sturgill Simpson, Jason Isbell, and The Turnpike Troubadours.

Hunt is a graduate of Texas A&M, where he played in the Fighting Texas Aggie Band. And since then, although life has taken him down the winding roads of marriage, parenthood, and corporate work, music has always been there in the background, waiting for the right moment to peek into the sunlight.
