Mat Kearney

2008
I generally like to think of myself as peppy, fun-loving and more inclined to like songs that are big, driving and anthemic. The fact that I love Mat Kearney’s “Nothing Left to Lose” is somewhat surprising.
His album was released last April, so maybe I’m late to the “scene” but I’m writing about it and you’re not so there.
Sorry about that. His whole CD sounds more like the soundtrack to one of those high school reality shows on MTV where everything is so dramatic and the end of life as we know it is around every corner. He’s got this ability to blend a very cool acoustic feel with hip-hop while also feeling like he’s an emo-kid. Still I can not help loving this thing. I’ve been listening to it all day. So if you like melancholy mood music, than this is your guy. He’s no Englebert Humperdink, but he’s pretty awesome.
Finally you’re cool like that! Hope you & Jen are having the best time! Tell Frank “HI”
