BIO

Indie Rock - or "guitar music" - seemed to be the obvious choice for 28 year old singer-songwriter Matt Sahadi to blend with his heartland-rock storytelling. Originally from Canton, OH, he moved to Nashville, TN, in an escape of the confines and binding nature of ordinary life - and to pursue his passion for songwriting and performing.

His first single “Light of Hope” made it clear that Matt had his own sound and direction with big drums, lush guitar, and a burning harmonica hook. He quickly followed that release with 4 enormous-sounding singles — “Still Were Us”, “Fantasy”, “Cherry Cola”, and “Maybe It’s Time” — each one modestly doing better than the previous. Finally in summer of 2022, Matt landed his first of many Editorial placements on both Apple and Spotify with his saxophone drenched late-night rocker “A Heart That’s Not Your Kind.” Continuing on this successful path, Matt found a hit yet again with his heartland-dream-pop ballad “Wild & Young” which again found Editorial placement, on top of it being the fastest and largest organic growth of the releases thus far.

With influences from synth-wave, shoegaze, and indie-rock, Matt couples his sound with cinema styled lyrics and story telling. Additionally, when it comes time to step in front of an audience, Matt pours every ounce of himself into delivering a heart-stopping and hard-rocking performance. Backed by a band of crashing drums, rhythmic bass, and big guitars, there’s no room to doubt why he’s there. For the heartbreakers, the soul searchers, and the big dream chasers, Matt is the voice of those who yearn for something real and try in vain to find more out of life.
