Mat Kearney
Mat Kearney is a pop singer/songwriter based in Nashville whose arching, mellow compositions and deft blending of hip-hop, CCM, and folk have made him a live favorite and adult contemporary mainstay. Emerging in 2004 with Bullet, Kearney departed slightly from his rhymes and concentrated more on guitar work for subsequent efforts like 2011's Young Love and 2015's Just Kids, both of which reached the Top 20 of the Billboard 200. In 2021, he brought all of his varied influences together on the rootsy January Flower.
Born in Eugene, Oregon, singer/songwriter Mat Kearney began his musical career 400 miles south at the Chico branch of California State University, where he studied literature and played on the soccer team. After completing his junior year, Kearney went to Nashville with friend/producer Robert Marvin, with the intention of only staying the summer to lay down a few songs. However, after offers for recording deals started coming in, Kearney decided to remain in Tennessee to seriously pursue his songwriting career. Kearney's interesting blend of hip-hop and folk intrigued Inpop Records, which offered him the deal he'd been looking for and released his debut album, Bullet, in 2004.
Kearney dialed back on the rhymes for his follow-up effort, Nothing Left to Lose. Released by Aware/Columbia Records in 2006, the album proved to be fairly popular, with three songs appearing in various episodes of Grey's Anatomy and two songs enjoying successful runs as singles. Kearney returned three years later with City of Black & White, supporting the album's release with a tour alongside Keane and the Helio Sequence.
In July 2011, he released Young Love on the Universal label, coinciding with a tour with Owl City. Three years later, Kearney delivered his follow-up, Just Kids. The album saw him working once again with Josh Crosby -- as well as MDL (Justin Bieber, Maroon 5) -- while drawing influence for the album from his time growing up in Eugene. He then joined Needtobreathe on tour, and returned with the singles "Face to Face" and "Better Than I Used to Be" from his 2018 full-length, the chart-topping Crazytalk. 2021 saw the release of his sixth full-length, January Flower, parts of which he wrote while in isolation in Joshua Tree, and finished in Nashville with longtime producer Robert Marvin.
