it was just a couple summers ago that i spent several days in las vegas with todays birthday boy as he geared up to release Hospital Music, an intense and sensitive studio album. we would go on taco runs and on the last night i was there he played to a select group of friends and fans.

today matt turns 24. imagine creating all that music in that short period of time! truly amazing.

now mr good is poised to come out with a new collection of songs that i cant wait to hear. perhaps he will spend another week in the desert oasis. or perhaps hawaii? maybe cuba?

regardless my fondest wishes go out to him today on his big day and i hope he knows how many people hes touched in major ways, including me.

happy birthday matt!
