Born: October 29, 1967    Primary Instrument: Guitar, slide

Matt Basso has been a Singer/Songwriter for the last 25 years. He started out in a band called 3rd Wish. Since going solo in 1996, he has recorded and performed some folk and blues music. His love for the sound of the blues harp and the intensity of 80's hard rock helped him to create the current sound. Considered Blues-Rock by most, the music has a strong emphasis on vocals and hooks. Musically, he plays slide resonator guitars, bass and his signature Blues harp. His playing is often compared to John Popper and Darrell Mansfield rather than the old time Little Walter sound. The release Get Ready is available at CDbaby.com
