With deeply personal tunes leaning into self-described “alternative soul,” Matt Xavier cites his musical inspirations as “girls, alcohol, heretics, and general mischief.”  Upon listening to his recently released 2019 album, Good Nite, you can hear an interweaving of early 2000’s rock and acoustic grit – as if dancing between acoustic tunes of Sublime, soulful piano ballads reminiscent of Radiohead and Tom Waits, plus sad-boi Gorillaz vibes. Xavier’s sound is soulfully unpredictable, leaving surprises at the turn of every corner. On his writing process, he noted, “My favorite thing about writing music is that there’s no rules – it’s just better leave the blood and tears in your notebook and leave the sweat on stage.” Come see for yourself.
