Indie Rock - or "guitar music" - seemed to be the obvious choice for 26 year old singer-songwriter Matt Sahadi to blend with his heartland-rock storytelling. Originally from Canton, OH, he moved to Nashville, TN, in an escape of the confines and binding nature of ordinary life - and to pursue his passion for songwriting. From working in steel mills to college, playing every open mic to spotlight showcase series, Matt's path has not been easy and often times soul crushing as success with rock is hard to come by these days, especially in a town where Pop-Country reigns over the Nashville.

As a student of some of the great rock poets, Matt weaves the weighted experiences of "real people" with "real problems" into the fabric of his songs. Often being credited with a cinematic style of writing, Matt attempts to find a natural balance between reality and pop story telling. With an emotive passionate. and stvlistic voice. Matt not only narrates his music, he is a character within it.

From his influences with the synth-wave era of the 80s/90s. He brings a blend of synth-infused production with delayed and chorusy guitars and drums that drive the song, while giving way for the lyrics to shine. Matt’s live performances are nothing short of heart-stopping and hard rocking. With a solid band of players, he leaves no doubt of why he’s there. Matt's songs are for the heartbreakers, the soul searchers, and the big dream chasers - those whose hearts burn with madness for something more out of life.
