Description
“He’s kind of like Ray LaMontagne meets Elton John meets Stevie Wonder meets Rufus Wainwright.  It’s time for the birth of the hybrid artist."
-Justin Timberlake

"It will exceed all expectations."      
-Charlie Sexton

This is the word on the street about Matt Morris' debut album, The Un-American LP (available in late 2008), from Justin Timberlake's new label, Tennman Records.  With songs that bring to mind Freddie Mercury, Bill Withers, and Jeff Buckley, yet feature the talents of Austin legend, Patty Griffin and famed artist, Edie Brickell, not to mention the production stylings of Charlie Sexton and Timberlake, the album is as divergent as it is contagious. And Matt himself is as unexpected as he is real.
It is Matt's voice and inescapable lyrics that make his music intoxicating. His songs are seductive, addicting, playful, soulful, and ultimately unforgettable, and his voice draws you in, smooth and powerful, and rough when it needs to be. More than anything, Matt's music is about reality, even while his voice is out of this world.
