Recorded with Maurice "Mo" Brines at his super secret studio in Concord, NC, "Concord Anthems" is a full length record largely inspired by MM's move from West Harlem, NYC to Concord, NC. With each track, not the least of which "Southern Man", you can feel just how deeply this move affected MM in his outlood both on life and music.

ON THE VERGE OF SOMETHING MORE (2003)
Recorded in a friend's home studio in Delray Beach, FL (before everyone had a home studio), "On the Verge of Something More" features 14 songs penned when Matt was 16 and 17 years old. These songs represent the various highs and lows that accompany a boy's transition from adolescence to adulthood.  While several of the songs have held up and maintain a place in his set (title track, "Perks of Being a Wallflower", "800 Miles"), some of the tracks have only grown more cringey with time (and no, we won't list them). That said, Matt has long planned on rerecording a handful of this teenage anthems for a 20th Anniversary release in 2023!
