Matt Maeson on Tour
Matt Maeson's introduction to the stage was far from ordinary. The singer/songwriter toured with his parents, playing Christian heavy metal and performing at prisons across the U.S. While he would stray far from his roots for his own solo career, that experience helped shape his high-powered performance style. After his first U.S. headlining tour, Maeson landed coveted slots at festivals like Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza. In 2019, he continued to spend most of his days on the road, for the Bank on the Funeral Tour and The Day You Departed Tour, both in support of his debut album. That same year, he even got a chance to sing on stage with one of his favorite artists, Lana Del Rey.
Matt Maeson in Concert
Matt Maeson's bluesy, rock-infused alt-folk manages to sound big, bold and intimate all at once, as he mixes raw folk songwriting with anthemic, pop-inspired production. It's a far cry from the music he played growing up in Virginia. Maeson's parents played in Christian metal bands, and he took up drums and guitar as a child to join them on tours around the country, performing in maximum-security prisons and at biker rallies. Through it all, his parents forbade him to listen to rock music, but that didn't keep him out of trouble. As a young adult, he struggled with drugs and even landed in jail, but soon found a sense of salvation in creating his own music. In 2015, he began posting songs to SoundCloud, which caught the attention of a representative at Neon Gold Records. The label quickly signed him, and he released his debut single "Cringe," which eventually topped the U.S. Alternative Songs chart. He took to the road for his first headlining tour around the U.S., bringing venues like Irving Plaza and Observatory North Park to capacity, while he worked on songs for his debut EP, Who Killed Matt Maeson? The following year, he dropped a second EP, The Hearse. Finally, in 2019, Maeson unveiled his debut full-length album, Bank on the Funeral, a dynamic set that combines empowering rock anthems with poignant folk ballads.
This show was amazing! His live quality is mind blowing. Just as good as studio if not better! Also Tyler Johnson was his drummer and that made the concert even better ❤️ Technicolors showed out also! Definitely recommend.
Artist in the truest sense of the word and coming in to his own. Able to deliver on performance and emotionally speaking -passion is his forte.
Matt is one of our favorite artists, we had never seen him in concert before and this was an amazing experience.
The music was really good, there was room to dance and be entertained. Wasn’t a big fan of how the merchant tables were set up, it made entering and exiting the room very difficult
All I want to say is this show was a banger, but Ticketmaster is making me use 50 characters so there ya go.
Matt Maeson sounds amazing live. Great energy and great sound. This is our second time seeing him and we would absolutely go again any time he’s in town.
Matt Maeson blew me away at the first breath he took. The way he can play guitar. The notes can hit so naturally. It was pure talent and impeccable passion for what he loves to do. He connected with us and was just a casual guy loving his life. Our show was the first night of his current tour and he announced that Cringe has become #1 on Alternative Top 100. He said it so casually and did not expect anything from us. He is so grateful of his fans and his life. It was an amazing show. I would go see him again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Matt Maeson.
such a good concert. though they started very late, it was very worth the wait.
Matt Maeson has been my favorite artist for some time now, and hearing him live did not disappoint. His voice sounds the same (if not better) live than in his recordings!
Matt just gets better every time. This young dude performs and sounds better each time I see him.........st. andrews was no exception and the crowd ate it up. Next time in detroit it's going to be a bigger venue. Outstanding performance.
Matt Maeson is so incredibly talented and entertaining. The energy in the room was so great. I’ve probably been to 20 shows this year, but this may have been my favorite. Definitely go see him!
Matt looked so rad with his plain clothing and super sparkly boots. The sound quality felt so good in my chest, however they needed to turn up the mic at times because sometimes the bass would drown out the other sounds too much. He had a nice balance of not talking too much, but still sharing small stories. The merch booth had super neat things and your Smith was adorable and kind.
