Matt Simons has a lot to reflect on. He is coming off a decade of massive success- particularly throughout continental Europe- that all began with the placement of the track ‘With You’ on a Dutch television show. It didn’t take long before the follow-up single ‘Catch & Release’ picked up steam and the whole of Europe and many more territories all over the world knew his name. When the pandemic hit, he relocated back to his native state of California, from Brooklyn to Los Angeles. Born in Palo Alto, Matt released his first studio album, Pieces, in 2012, and has followed up with four more, most recently Identity Crisis in 2022. After ten years of recording and touring, he found himself searching for inspiration. The business had changed so much since he first began, and he wanted to say something new, something fresh. “You know, as a songwriter, you always think that after you write the next song, you’re never gonna write a good one again. And usually it only lasts a couple of months. This time it lasted a couple of years.” Recently, Matt signed with Sony Germany, which will be dropping singles from the forthcoming record, his sixth studio album, between now and its release in 2024. Matt’s enthusiasm for what’s to come is palpable, and listeners the world over should take notice. “That will be the journey, finding a way to reach people,” he says, “because I think this is the best stuff I’ve ever done.”
