Matt McIntosh

Matt McIntosh (born January 13, 1971) is an American singer, guitarist and songwriter, whose musical background begins during his early teens, in the mid to late 1980s American hardcore punk movement. In November of 2007 McIntosh digitally released his home recordings as The Basement Demos, which through blogger activity and pod-casting helped the effort to emerge as a modest independent success. The EP’s eight self-produced tracks fuse elements of rock, post-punk/electronic and folk, utilizing acoustic guitar, keys, strings, found sounds and rudimentary programming, and establishing McIntosh’s role as a solo artist. On September 4th, 2012, McIntosh issued Gaffes, Missteps & Horrible Mistakes; a collection of demos and outtakes recorded between 2008 and 2011. Like The Basement Demos, the eight track effort emphasizes a compound of styles including rock, post-punk and Americana, bearing similarly minimal production values. Read more on Last.fm.
