Matt the Electrician is Matthew Sever, a quirky, sincere folk/pop singer songwriter based in Austin, TX. He has self-released 11 studio albums, and 2 live CDs since 1998.

His most recent release, The Ocean Knocked Me Down came out on February 2nd, 2024.

For the new project, Matt returned to his “home studio”, The Aerie, in Austin, TX, (owned and operated by Mark Addison) where Matt had recorded 4 of his previous records, including 2009’s Animal Boy. Though mostly written during the pandemic, the vibe of the record is upbeat, and weird, and fun, and sometimes sad, but hopeful, and occasionally poignant, and silly, and hopeful, but ridiculous, and also hopeful. That’s a lot of vibes, but there are 16 songs on the record. We’ve all been through a lot, so Matt figured that everyone deserved a few more songs and a few more vibes than usual.
