Matt MacKelcan To Release "From Where I Stand" On September 16, 2014

New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ JLS Artist Management) With a genuine combination of American soul and an upbeat pop-rock style, Matt has emerged as one of the go-to indie front men in the southeastern U.S. He first cut his teeth in the music scene of Orlando Florida during his time at Rollins College while earning a degree in vocals, composition and guitar. In 2008, Matt was lured to Charleston along the South Carolina coast—where his single "Drive" has been regularly featured on radio at 105.5 The Bridge. When around home, Matt also performs regularly at the iconic venue The Windjammer…perhaps best-known as a launchpad for Darius Rucker's Hootie & The Blowfish. Matt's trademarks are a big voice, authentic songwriting, personable nature and an extra dose of funny.

Matt's recently released EP Slow Down produced by Aaron Tap (Matt Nathanson) has garnered critical acclaim and is currently getting radio adds (AAA and College) with singles "Chances Are" and "So Far". Audiences are growing in all markets and the word of mouth on the EP and the entertaining live show have Matt and his band poised for a big 2012.

As his popularity spreads far beyond his roots, Matt's sophomore CD No Turning Back continues to meet embracing live audiences across the country—from Boston to Austin, from Park City to New York City. He's no stranger to crowds of thousands either, headlining with his band at college football's 2010 Capital One Citrus Bowl pregame event and many other Festival's nationwide Artscape,(Greenville, SC) Artisphere, (Baltimore), Dogwood (Atlanta), River Jam (Charlotte, NC). "From Where I Stand" is the follow up to No Turning Back and it is already garnering some strong attention. Matt will be opening for Matt Nathanson on several dates this month.
