Matt Jones

The singer songwriter has always had an important role as storyteller. As far back as you can go there were musicians who would role off a tune or two with some evocative lyrics that would make people step outside of their own space for a few minutes and enter a new one.. Matt fulfills that role, his songs are strong and lyrically well crafted. His voice is kind on the ears and the soul. A special mention to the musicians who perform with Matt, some admirable performances. Take time to view some of his live performances on ALtv
