Matt Woods is a product of Appalachia. You can hear his East Tennessee roots tangled in the lines of hissongs and it is through this filter he distills the world, both external and internal, into his unique brand ofsongwriting. You can call it Americana, folk rock, even country music but no matter what it’s called it is,at its core, honest and heartfelt. Spending most of his time on the road, either engaging listeners as a soloartist or with his band, Matt Woods and the Natural Disasters, he would say, if asked, that he is “justtrying to share some truth and get along.” 2019 brought the release of Woods’ 4th full length studioalbum, Natural Disasters, and an impressive touring schedule in support of it across the US and Europe,the latter of which having become a yearly endeavor since the release of 2016’s How To Survive. As theglobal Covid-19 pandemic brought touring to a halt, Matt moved forward in other ways includingkeeping connected via online events, writing for future releases, and even releasing an EP titledMornings After. In 2022, Matt’s song “My Southern Heart” was prominently placed in the feature filmCrawlspace, starring Henry Thomas (E.T. the Extra Terrestrial, The Haunting of Hill House, MidnightMass). As we move into 2025, Woods is releasing new music in the form of digital singles whilefinalizing plans for the release of his 5th full length studio album by year’s end. “Burning Bed,” the firstof those singles, will be available everywhere in January.Both Natural Disasters and Mornings After, produced by Joey Kneiser (Glossary and Austin Lucas),share insights to the realities of our place in time as perceived through Woods’ eyes and enriched by thetalents of Adam Meisterhans on electric guitars, Jeremy Mackinder on bass guitar, PJ Schreiner on drums,and Mike Webb (Chris Stapleton, Poco) on keys with Lance Howell (Big Shoals) and Kashena Sampsonproviding harmonies throughout. Along the way, Matt has shared the stage with the likes of TylerChilders, Chris Knight, Black Oak Arkansas, Frank Turner, Roger Alan Wade, Zac Brown, Drivin' n'Cryin', Will Hoge, Roger Clyne (of The Refreshments), CAKE, Robbie Fulks, The White Buffalo, TheBlack Lillies and others.Press:"It’s only a matter of time before singer-songwriter Matt Woods finds wider recognition." -PerformingSongwriter“Like Jason Isbell, another son of the South who bears a tenacious tone, Woods is in the vanguard ofcountry music’s feisty new generation.” -No Depression"Woods has such a captivating, magnetic voice filled with passion, it’s hard not to draw parallels tothe now hugely successful Chris Stapleton.” -Americana UK“So, pay no heed to those prophesying that the end of country music is nigh, with icons-in-the-makinglike Matt Woods breathing life into the genre, there’s still hope yet.” -Mother Church Pew“[Matt Woods] started singing with more power and more emotion than, get ready for this, more emotionand strength than anyone I remember seeing maybe ever. I was floored...I LOVE THIS SONG.” -RikiRachtman (Headbangers Ball, NASCAR Radio, Fork In The Road)**On the song “Deadman’s Blues”
