Bio / Background
Matt Pless is a singer/songwriter who has been a performer his whole life. Experience in various bands and musical endeavors eventually led him to a niche in the underground punk scene. He was the lead singer/songwriter for the high-energy punk band he formed at the onset of the millennium, opening for artists such as, Maroon 5, American HiFi, Allister, Fallout Boy, The Queers and many other national acts. He honed his craft touring and performing all over the country from small clubs to concert halls like the Hard Rock Café to major outdoor happenings such as the Vans Warped Tour. Along the way his Do-It-Yourself work ethic garnered a strong underground following.
Three full-length albums and one EP released with the band solidified Matt's reputation as a clever lyricist and energetic performer who could also craft a catchy melody and deliver it in an unforgettable way. But as band members drifted in and out, he was driven to take his music in a different creative direction.

On his newest release, a solo debut album "Requiems for Wishing Wells" Matt has crafted a musical journey with twelve inspired moments. It's a trip that lets us know that along the road of life not everything turns out exactly as planned and you must view the changes not as the death of dreams, but more as the continuation of goals. He captures life as he sees it, calls us to pause, take a look, and reflect on the scene he lays before us. His style delivers a distinctive sound that embraces all aspects of music and is blended by the influences of many musical genres.
Through his writing and arranging he can engage an audience with nothing more than guitar and voice or by adding more instruments he can envelop them in layers of musical sounds. A strong sense of the visual allows him to compliment his music with his original drawing compositions which are present throughout "Requiems for Wishing Wells". It's a total art show spectacle that stands Matt Pless apart from the large market of singer/songwriters today.
