Matt Burke

Website

Florida-native Matt Burke began writing and releasing music with his full band project – The Matt Burke Band – in 2010. After developing a large fanbase in Central-Florida over the course of the 2010’s, the group split up in 2018 and Burke decided to focus exclusively on his songwriting and solo career. Burke moved to Nashville in the latter half of 2019 and quickly began making a name for himself as a songwriter and performer. Since the fall of 2020, Burke has been releasing a steady stream of quality new material that has drawn comparisons to Jason Isbell, Sturgill Simpson, and Zac Brown. A versatile artist, each single Burke releases touches on a different aspect of the Americana genre – from 1970’s honky-tonk line-dance anthems to heartbreaking bar stool laments and Top 40, country-rock singles ready for the hot 100, Burke showcases the many faces of his musical personality while continuing to carve his unique niche in the Nashville Music scene and across the southeastern US.

His command of a room will engage even the most stoic watchers, and his heartfelt lyrics, harmonies, and musical arrangements has awarded him several top 10 albums.
