Matt very patiently worked through all my edits to bring to life a version of the song that I believe it was always striving to become. I’m happy that my song received everything it needed to take its final shape. Now it will have a life of its own. Thank you for this journey.

Matt is a joy to work with! He took a very strum-forward acoustic track of mine and elevated it to something greater with more dynamics, drama, rhythm, production elements and overall life. Would definitely work with him again!
