MMHP Season 6 Ep:26--Matthew Smith--Independent Detroit's Worldwide Voice, Part 1 of 2

Matthew Smith brought a song to start the show with the MMHP. Nobody has done this yet. A new, as of yet unrecorded track, voice and piano. Smith writes and records more music than most people can take a breath of in a day. Between The Volebeats, Outrageous Cherry, and his solo work, Smith has outlined a career in indy sonics, world class craft, and master musicianship. He has worked with everyone under the Michigan sun, and then some. Rodriguez, Alice Cooper, Don Was, and so many more, you have to tune into hear it all.

We captured Smith live at Trinosophes, a predominantly avant garde coffee/vegan friendly sandwich cafe, art, free jazz (and then some), next door to Peoples Records in Detroit. Smith invited us (along with and much thanks to owner Joel Peterson) to sit down for a lengthy discussion, performance, and intimate career retrospective of his many musical facets. Get to know Matthew Smith--you already have heard him! Part one NOW...
