Matt Wilson



"
Dan,
Here's my new song, Tuesday Weekend. I hope you enjoy it...See you later on tonight.
-Matt"

Matt Wilson is a wonderfully sincere, local artist here in Staten Island. You can find him playing bass in surf band Captain Ahab & The Sea
Crackens...who have a new CD up on itunes.

Matt also playsa da bass in The Rabbits (who you would also love)
...if you missed the Rabbits / Paragraph set the other night...it's really okay...but you should have been there.

Don't forget Matt also plays in the Fire Monkeys. Don't forget Matt covers The Replacements. Don't forget Matt claims that he can take me in a Prince sing-off.

Obviously the dude keeps himself busy...it amazes us that he can find time to produce these musical gems. A new Matt Wilson solo song arrived in the mail the other day...this is the gem I speak of.

It is always fun to see Matt play in bands...he can be like a bull in a china shop...a man on a mission...but it is when he is by himself at an open mic or on his computer with Cool Edit Pro that you really get a taste of the lovable personality he possesses. A personality that sings and plays and everything else..Very genuine stuff.

This song has a very authentic feel to it..a little reminiscent of Brian* Wilson...with warm harmonies...modest tones...and a pretty ring-out..is it called a "ring-out"? I'm talking about the very last chord in the song.

...Tuesday Weekend also sits at just more than 1 minute in length.

Check it out below! I think you will love it as much as I do. Come see Matt play sometime soon!
