Matt Grundy - Multi-Instrumentalist, Singer-Songwriter, and Studio Musician
Manage episode 358487898 series 2466896
Matt Grundy is a California-based world-renowned multi-instrumentalist, touring, and studio musician. Matt has performed with and toured with some of the biggest names in the music industry including G. Love, Ben Harper, Jack Johnson as well as his main gig accompanying Donavon Frankenreiter which keeps him quite busy circling the globe year-round.
When not on tour, Grundy feels most himself with his wife, and daughter or in his music studio. Matt speaks from the heart about how he always seeks balance between living the rockstar life and being a bit more introverted at home.
Grundy describes his lifestyle and career as bipolar based on the extremes he experiences in both directions, from luxurious trips to Richard Branson’s Necker Island to staying in a room full of penis statues in Tahiti, to traveling around Europe in a souped-up cargo van with no heat and wooden bunks.
Matt has built up an impressive fluency on guitar, bass guitar, harmonica, vocals and drums, and aside from his gigging life he’s been developing his reputation as a singer-songwriter. Thus far he’s put out two studio albums and takes his music creation very seriously.
We go far and wide on this podcast. Matt shares his thoughts on AI and how it's affecting the music industry and how streaming platforms have become the new record label behemoth. Matt dives into his creative process and how he's constantly learning new things and improving his skills as a musician.
We touched upon what it’s like to be around true greatness and how toxic it can be to compare yourself to others. Matt says that he has a very obsessive mind and his former life with addiction has helped him to learn to point those compulsions at better things like fitness, sobriety, health, family, music and evolving as a human.
In talking to Grundy, it’s clear that he’s doing music for the right reason. He said that he's not looking to be rich and famous anymore, but he's always going to keep making music the way he wants to, regardless of who does or doesn't listen to it.
I’ve been friends with Matt since we were on tour together in Brazil in 2007 and I love my talks with Grundy.
