A story best played, not told.

Matthew Coen writes songs the way he plays bass — in the pocket, no wasted notes, built to move people. A Nashville area singer, songwriter, bassist, and producer, Matt writes and records his music the old-school way: with real musicians and real takes. The kind of songs that make you laugh, cry, or get up and dance — sometimes in the same three minutes.

His catalog ranges from raw, four-track “old school” cuts to fully built modern productions, but the through-line never moves: real songs, made by real people.
