That Song

Whatever Happened to Love

Tom Shapiro and I wrote this in the early 2000's and Curtis Wright is singing. It's inspired by me growing up in Shelby, NC and my affection for small southern towns and the folks who live there. I heard all of this in my youth; I suspect you can hear it to this day ;-)

Music to My Ears

Josh Leo, Marty Dodson and I wrote this in the early 2000's.  Ron Wallace is singing and yes, I am an emotional guy.  Please give to St. Jude Children's Hospital if you can.

A Man Who Feels

IN YOU (I FOUND ME)

One Last Song To Say Goodbye

Texas-born singer/songwriter Christopher Wright released his new single “Collin
County Jail” today. Produced by legendary singer/songwriter Ray Wylie Hubbard, the
guitar-scorched country rocker was inspired by Wright’s personal experience within the
penal system and the positive life-changing decisions he made to get him where he is
today. In addition to the single, Wright also shared a compelling new video directed by
613 Media. Click here to watch and share.
Recorded at The Zone in Dripping Springs, TX, Wright enlisted a grab bag of Texas
talent to play on the new song including Pat Manske (drums); Tobin Dale (bass/guitar)
and Lucas Hubbard (mandolin/guitar).
Of the new track, Wright says “I pretty much wrote this song when I was in the Collin
County Jail about seven years ago.” I made a few poor decisions and there were some
charges I needed to go sit and think about. The judge was kind enough to give me 90
days to marinate on whether or not this was going to be the life for me going forward. I
had a number of people that were in there that I knew, and I immediately realized, that I
had been making so many bad decisions that I actually had friends in the penal system.
It was obviously time for a change… or else. Somewhere along the way I realized, this
was not me or even close to who I wanted to be.  It was time to turn my will over to a
power way bigger than me and get out of my own way.”

"I Didn't Know"  Featuring Sherrie' Austin Off of the brand new full length album by Matt VanFossen called "Wheeling,WV 1984"

I Didn't Know featuring Sherrie' Austin

Making music that comes from the heart and touches the soul...that's what Matt VanFossen does best.
His latest single is no exception. Produced by Mike Ofca at Innovation Studios and written by Mallary Hope “Get Me Now” is a song that talks about overcoming heartbreak. The lyrics "You might still get to me somehow, but you don’t get to get me now" are powerful and relatable to all.
It's about letting go....knowing you deserve better, and finding that strength to leave the past behind. Everyone has that certain someone in their lives that they'd like to say  you missed your chance... you lost the best thing that ever happened to you. Matt's powerful and heartfelt vocals grab you from the first note.
Matt VanFossen is not your average cookie-cutter country artist. He is real, honest, and true to the music he loves. Through his personal tragedy and triumphs, music has always been there.
