We had the good fortune of connecting with Matthew Nagy and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Matthew, what habits do you feel play an important role in your life?
I have a habit of not being able to stop and to just keep going. Especially with writing songs. Which isn’t a bad thing but I find myself trying to get all them recorded. So I have a massive backlog of music that I’m constantly working on. I’m currently working on my own material plus a side project I have with a friend. We’ve co-written an EP together and are working on getting that out very soon

 

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
What I’m most proud of is the new music I’ll be releasing all through this year. I have a three song single called Love help us all coming out on February 14. I wrote that last February 14th and the next night debuted it at a writers round. I tracked the guitar and vocals for it relatively quick. Then took a lot of time arranging and selecting what instruments to be featured on it. So yeah I’m really proud of that one and can’t wait to get it out for everyone to hear. It’s never easy in anything you do striving for the next level but you just have to keep pushing. Im always looking for something new and new sounds.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
A friend of mine recently came to visit and we pretty mush just hit guitar stores. Carters Vintage, Rumble seat music, and Gruhns. Of course we did the Broadway thing but not too long. We had lunch at Papa Turney’s BBQ. One of my favorite places to eat around town.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
John Pineiro who is my producer at Perfect Image Studios. He has definitely taught me a lot about the recording process and has helped me tremendously in my musical journey. I’ve been working with John since the beginning of 2021 and have recorded everything I have released plus more at his studio. He’s a producer that actually cares about making great music and is there every step of the way.
