Calling all songwriters!
I received an email from a friend of mine, forwarded from a Nashville songwriter named Austin Atteberry.  Austin is working on an extremely cool project, and is looking for a bunch of songwriters to get involved.  I’ll go ahead and paste the email below, since he can explain better than I… A year ago, I emailed regarding a Dockers contest I was entering in order to get funding for an...

Confessions of a Former Superhero in Chicago: Help... →
Just noticed this post now, and the deadline has technically passed, but I know Laura pretty damn well, and I’m fairly certain that when she calls the deadline “flexible” she means the to the fullest extent of the word. Plus, the track is coming out so so so soon!  Written, performed and sung by Laura.  Recorded/engineered by me, and co-produced by Laura Green & Matt Ryd....

Xoe Wise & Matt Ryd Tour tumblog →
Heya tumblr! This is where I’ll be doing the majority of my blogging over the next month and a half (I head out on tour in a couple of weeks, Xoe is already on the road).  It’ll be more traditional ‘tumblr-style’ blogging—short updates with a lot of pictures and vlogs and things like that.  I’ll try and cross-post some of the good stuff over here, as well, but...

Anonymous asked: Hey Matt,
I have just seen your signed sealed delivered video and in the description it says the tab is on your website but I can't find it anywhere. If you could either send me it or let me know where it is I would be extremely grateful, thanks.

Anonymous asked: I found your website through StudioPros. Question: How did you get your music to be licensed by the tv show Scrubs? Is there an organization your a member of that helps license music to tv and film? If so, would you mind sharing what that organization is? I've been looking to find an organization to join to license my music. Thanks!

More shows!
I’m so psyched to say that 1) I helped put the Bottom Lounge show together, and 2) the band and I are going to be opening for Caroline County!  Expect a crap-ton of further details as I ramp up into hardcore promotional mode, but the longstoryshort is that I’ve been following Julia Sheer’s work (she’s one half of Caroline County) on YouTube for a while now.  I’ve...

Lyrics!
I have had multiple people call me out for not having my song lyrics anywhere on my site.  It’s true—I was completely lapse in that area, and I pretty much suck. BUT!  Now I’ve fixed that problem.  After a few hours of wrestling with tumblr’s “pages” system (which is really really picky about what type of code it lets you type in the HTML section.  Seriously....
