Matt Covers….
I am really not a music expert. But I know what I like and more than anything I like music that sounds authentic…that is, when an artist stays true to himself. I don’t even mind if they kind-of sound like someone else, as long as they genuinely aren’t trying to imitate someone’s sound or style. One of the best ways to measure if someone is being true to themselves as an artist is when they cover a song.
Matt does this better than most. His unique warble is as unwavering as his love of bare feet and plaid shirts. And so I introduce you to Matt Covers…
I hope to bring a few of the songs Matt has covered at his live shows. This week, it’s Bob Dylan’s Maggie’s Farm, as performed in San Diego sometime around August, 2009. The video is courtesy of rosie928.
