Matt's new record, "Young Man About Town," is in its final stages of mixing. In fact, it will be finished by the end of this day. The record has been a blast and by all accounts, Matt's most exciting recordings so far. Release date is not set but will be asap.

Matt's new record will begin spinning tape in early September out in Austin, TX. It has taken a while, but a suitable place and of course, eager, creative musicians have been requested and selected for the project. The new record will be a departure from Matt's debut, "Let's Work it Out," which showcased a more RnB-rooted approach to songwriting and arrangements. The new songs were mostly written and performed on the road the past year. The concept is based around a young man's adventures and his search for leisure, pleasure and self-inflicted pain. Very hot stuff.

Spring Dates are being announced. May proves to be Matt's busiest month so far in his touring endeavors. He's in New York relaxing before he heads back out on the road. His Austin reunion was great. Old friends and good shows. His run through Tennessee was successful and he met many new friends and fans while leaving his debit card in Knoxville. The kind folks at the venue were kind enough to overnight it to him. This year promises a new record and a big move to the Big Apple by the end of the year.

New shows added to the Tour Listings. I have to say the tour has been going really well. The crowds have been full of strangers but they've been very welcoming. I've had a great run of shows lately and I'm going to keep plugging away and staying out on the road. My new record, "Who Said Pimping Ain't Easy?" will probably be recorded in August.

New shows posted!! Happy New Year. 2006 promises to be an exciting year for Matt Williams and his growing legion of fanatics or rabid fanbase. Either way, people just love Matt and his life-changing messages of hope in a hopeless world. Come join the fun by coming to a show in a town near you. Also, look out for a new record from Matt this year, tentatively titled: Two Shrimp Cocktails and No Money for the Bill.

Matt has finished his Athens to Austin tour and it was a success. Starting in Athens, GA on Sept 16 and ending in Austin, TX on Oct 13, the tour took on many locations such as the legendary Blue Door in Oklahoma City and the nationally famous, Bluebird Cafe, in Nashville, TN. After a few shows around the Southeast in the next several weeks, Matt will depart for the cold environs of New York and New England. Keep up to date in the Tour Section.

Matt has started announcing 2005 Summer tour dates. Keep up to date with the tour section of this site. Shows will be listed by the current month. This is Matt's first tour and promises to be interesting. This summer will see him play Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Washington D.C., Maryland and New York.

Filmmaker, Benjamin Hayes, will be debuting "Patrick Mallard" at 11:00 a.m. this Saturday, April 16th at the Dobie Theatre on Guadalupe. Matt's song, "Love's Behind that Red Door" will be on the soundtrack and will appear in the movie several times. This is Matt's first soundtrack appearance and he is obviously very excited.

Matt's debut record, "Let's Work it Out," has been receiving quite a bit of airplay internationally, nationally and locally. One of our latest goals has been to chart on the Texas Music Chart. This is a very tedious process that involving phone calls, trips to the Post Office, small headaches, anxiety attacks and finally, return trips to the Post Office. It has slowly been paying off as "Let's Work it Out" has been added to KBEL, KCKL, KEYB, KFYX, KGUL, KIKT, KPIR, KRXT, KSTV, KSWA, KXKZ and KZAM. The record has also been getting spins on college radio at NYU, stations in California, Colorado, Texas, Mississippi and South Carolina.

Saxon Pub Catch Matt with his backing band, the Cuban Heels. This promises to be a great show. Dan Dyer from Lenny Kravitz's label and Stephen Bruton follows. Matt plays from 8-9pm.
