Bio: He’s been called a soulful white guy, an acoustic geek-rocker, and the love child of Elton John and Billy Joel. His fans know him as everything from Matthew to Birdman to simply “Hot Wings”. Whatever you call him, though, Matthew Ebel is more than just a singer-songwriter, he’s a space pirate captain that takes his fans and friends beyond the mundane.
His latest album, Goodbye Planet Earth, is a rock-solid, complete work in 17 movements. The album is a noted departure from Matthewʼs typical organic feel, combining highly electronic elements like synthesizers and loops with raw vocals, pianos, pennywhistles, and more. It follows his critically-acclaimed release Beer & Coffee which, thanks to the power of the music and the pioneering spirit of podcasters, spread Matthew's reputation across the globe as one of the biggest names in new media music.
