I’ve been in this thing called the “Music Business” for a long time now!!!! Guys like Gary Matheny… who write incredible songs and have them produced with top of the line musicians… don’t get the opportunity to be heard like they should! Songs that harken back to styles that will take you on musical journeys through purple hazes of mushroom marmalade… and that’s without any pharmaceutical enhancement!
Matheny’s music is killer!!!! I’ve been a fan for quite a while! Given the strength of the songs and the talent of the songwriting… everybody should be finding out about Gary Matheny!

Gary Matheny is a story teller. Not a liar, a story teller. Gary is an excellent lyricist. He has the ability to take you on a journey with his writing and lyrics. On our projects, I would come up with a tune and Gary would fit in the words. Gary has the ability to create a mini vacation with his songs, giving the listener a place to retreat. That’s a honor among songwriters for listeners to get lost in your music. I think Gary is just getting started. He’s laid a good foundation.
Lee Jordan – Singer/Songwriter
Gary Matheny is like no other artist I’ve ever worked with. I remember thinking as we put each song together, that his music was reminiscent of the group America from the 70’s. As we worked in the studio, I knew that we were working on music that was very unique. He has developed his own sound that many will find refreshing. I wish him well on his musical journey.
