"Artist Matt Hurley writes Honest, Vulnerable, Engaging music about your Life & Love with Soulful Direct Lyrics, which reach you in a way most modern music Cannot.” Dean G. Hill, Director of Exposure Music Awards® / Raven Black Music®
A musical “Journey-Maker” who brings an honest and refreshing take on the classic singer/songwriter acoustic scene. With vulnerable vocal melodies and soulful guitar playing, Matt JR Hurley brings a vision of hope and a passion to bless through the music he creates.
At the end of June 2016 Matt released his debut EP ‘Raising Questions.’ Exploring the big questions of love, life and why through the eyes of Faith, Matt explores the depth and meaning to a persons life through their struggles. Thoughtful lyrics are set to a variety of different melodies that allow the listener to engage and relate to facing challenges and struggles within life. Within this EP Matt includes his debut Single, ‘Pebbles’ released earlier in 2016. This track looks at the themes of bereavement and loss, set to a background of etherial string melodies and a crescendo that allows us to hope for something better than the now.
Early 2017 saw Matt partner with Exposure music awards® winners Tenth Electric on a tour playing shows in Bristol, Bournemouth and London. He continues on this tour as well as playing a variety of independent shows across south central Britain.
