todd snider / by todd snider

i started making up songs in 1986.

i made an album in 1994.

i also started a tour in 1994

and that tour is, in a way, still going.

i never made a record so good

that i could just sit home

or did a show so bad

that i had to.

and man, i've done some shit shows,

shit albums too.

some of them are pretty good though,

but you know,

it's been a while.

i really need to put out a good album soon

or i'm finished. 

sometimes these days i sing with a band.

i think we made a good album.

david schools of widespread panic is our leader.

i make up our lyrics....we're a jam band.

our songs only go on about an hour or so but they’re still pretty long.

cool people jam with us all the time and we have like a million shirts and shit.

i personally think we're the seventh best band in the whole jam thing.

on this tour i am coming to town with nothing but my guitar and stories

like the old days.

you know...

pick a little

talk a little

pick a little 

talk a little

cheap cheap cheap

talk a lot

pick a little more. 

and not to brag,

but i also wrote a book that everybody loves

so i am an author now.

plus i play everywhere,

pretty much all the time

everybody shows up

and they pretty much always love it.

Matt McCormack is a unique blend of Native American heritage, a soulful Memphis upbringing and his original Austin/San Antonio style of well-crafted songwriting. At age 17, McCormack got his first dose of rock-n-roll chaos as the opening act for Blind Melon. Soon after, McCormack really got his musical feet wet as the van driver for Todd Snider's first US tour. Matt's appreciation and affinity for songwriting stems from listening to Todd's record collection.

Life In Stereo showcases McCormack's strengths in melodic storytelling. The first single "Pride" is a collaborative co-write with Gene Simmons of KISS, one of McCormack's childhood heroes. As Matt moves forward into unchartered waters, he is optimistic and inspired.
