Editor's note

Matt Wertz and his straightforward acoustic storytelling

A singer-songwriter from Erie, Pennsylvania whose songs favor direct emotional expression over elaborate production.

For a good sense of his style, try '5:19' or 'Some Days', they show his preference for straightforward storytelling without much fuss.

His 2005 song '5:19' became his most recognized track, reaching listeners with its simple arrangement and personal lyrics. Later songs like 'Carolina' and 'Everything's Right' reflect the consistent, unadorned approach that has characterized much of his catalog. He's maintained a steady output of material that stays close to his acoustic roots.

He released his debut album 'Breathing' in 2002. Albums like 'Under the Sun' in 2007 and 'More Than You Know' in 2010 followed, with later releases like 'These Walls' in 2015 and 'Echoes' in 2018 continuing in the same vein of acoustic-based songwriting.
