Mat Kearney (CARN-ee) is a singer/songwriter based out of Nashville, TN, originally from Eugene, Oregon. His music has an acoustic base fused with hip hop. He is signed to Aware/Columbia Records. In addition to singing, he also plays guitar, piano and harmonica. So far, he has a total of 4 top 20 hits on the Adult Top 40 Chart.
He has toured with Owl City, John Mayer, Sheryl Crow, The Fray, Jason Mraz, Vedera Newsboys, MUTEMATH, Meiko, Cary Brothers, and Train; and headlined VH1's first ever "You Oughta Know Tour" in the spring of 2007.
Topics discussed include: Early music memories, Playing coffee shops. Traveling from Oregon to Nashville with a friend in 2001, recording a first album, deciding to stay in Nashville, Tracking "Nothing Left To Lose" which became a hit single, and opened his career. Writing "Rochester" about his grandfather. Making the album sound modern at first glance, but finding deeper lyrics if you start to look closer. His song "Hey Mama". Adding Moog synths, and etc., messing around to come up with something, and ultimately the germ or seed of ending up on the recording. Writing Down, and Count on Me.
This program is "Evergreen" and not date specific.
Musical selections include: Nothing Left to Lose, City of Black and White, Down, Count on Me, Hey Mama, Rochester.
