Bio
"Matt Keating is in that same class of songwriter as Ron Sexsmith and Elliot Smith, but doesn't sound at all like either of them. His songs are elegant in structure and packed with wordplay that can amuse, dazzle, or hit way too close to home," -- No Depression
"Beautiful and honest songs of substance and melancholy" -- TimeOut London
"His tunes are clear-cut, and his confessions and uncertainty ring true" -- Jon Pareles, New York Times
Matt Keatings newest record, QUIXOTICa double disc set was a result of a reunion of sorts with long-time friend and producer Adam Lasus (Clap Your Hands, Say Yeah). Performing on the record are Duane Jarvis (Lucinda Williams, Frank Black, PF Sloan) Jason Mercer (Ron Sexsmith, Ana Egge) and Jordan Richardson (Oliver Future). This will be Matts eighth nationally released record, the list including acclaimed records throughout the 1990s on the ALIAS label (Archers of Loaf, Yo La Tengo, American Music Club) , the 2003 TILTAWHIRL on Alan MacGees POPTONES (UK) and Future Farmer (US), and last years Summer Tonight (Kealon Records).
