Hardly any singer-songwriter writes music more fitting for emotional states like heartbreak, longing, and emotional healing than Matt Hansen. With his empathetic lyrics, the musician from Los Angeles packages his own emotional world into moving songs full of authenticity, deeply touching his audience. This applies equally to his minimalist ballads as well as the catchy pop-rock songs, which are carried by his powerful voice, and songs like "LET EM GO," "something to remember," and "better off without me," which became hits. That Matt Hansen has established himself as an independent artist is reflected in more than 1.1 billion streams on Spotify and over 3 million followers on social media. After headlining tours on three continents, performances at Lollapalooza, and opening acts for Train, Teddy Swims, Lauv, and Alec Benjamin, as well as his TV debut on the TODAY Show, Matt Hansen now makes his biggest statement: on May 15, he released his long-awaited debut album "Orchid," which was created over the past four years of his career. In October, the singer-songwriter will present this album live on another headlining tour. He will perform at Hamburg's Gruenspan, Berlin's Metropol, and Cologne's Live Music Hall. Matt Hansen is further proof that a talent no longer needs to be discovered by the music industry to succeed. It all started with a TikTok video of him singing in a parking garage. After the video went viral in February 2021, over 500,000 people quickly followed, captivated by his voice and eagerly awaiting his first single "without you without me," which was released in October of that year. The single also captures the intimate and authentic sound of the viral video, thanks to the musician's DIY production, as he releases his music independently without a label. Over the years, songs like "better off without me" (2022), "LET EM GO," and "something to remember" have been created almost snapshot-like and without pressure, quickly becoming fan favorites. Over time, however, Matt Hansen's sound also evolves, opening up to a modern pop-rock side that interprets his captivating refrains and empathetic lyrics even more compellingly. On his debut album "Orchid," Matt Hansen now presents a collection of 17 songs that perfectly illustrate what his music is about: capturing his most vulnerable moments in relatable songs with which listeners can identify. The fact that this has led to a global community that redefines this vulnerability as a powerful source of strength and connection is a testament to his approachable charisma.
