Musical Monday: Matt Nathanson
Recipe to make me fall in love: have a guitar, sing well, write beautiful, amazing songs, and then sing them to me. <3
Today’s Musical Monday makes me super happy because…Kelly and I saw Matt Nathanson play an acoustic show yesterday at a neat little record store, Music Millennium! He was playing a concert at The Crystal Ballroom last night also (which I didn’t find out about until Saturday and couldn’t go to anyways) but surprise! Free afternoon acoustic show! Yes, please. I love his voice and he sounds amazing in person too. Also now a fan of Aaron in his band. They played “Modern Love” (title track from his latest album), “Room @ The End Of The World,” “Faster,” and a cover of “Little Red Corvette.” It was all being recorded live and Matt is actually pretty funny. Afterwards, he signed albums and took pictures with anyone who stayed:

So here are a few songs for you to love:
“I Saw” – the first song I ever heard by him. It was on a mix a friend gave to me my freshman year of college.
“Come On Get Higher” – LOVE this song ever since I first heard it on the short-lived TV show, Big Shots. The song became a huge hit, but I still love it with all my heart.
“Faster” – first track on his new album, Modern Love.
“Love Comes Tumbling Down” – one of my favorite off of Modern Love.
“Room @ The End Of The World”
“Modern Love” – his song about female empowerment. Seriously. That’s exactly what he said 
This looks like such a great show, and that’s so cool that you got to meet Matt, I’m a big fan. and just a music recommendation, I think you’d like Brent Anderson. I’ve been playing “Amy’s Song” all week https://www.brentandersonmusic.com/
