Get ready to turn up the heat with the latest release from southern-rock inspired band MATNEY. On February 9th, they will be dropping their highly-anticipated single “All Fired Up”, following the release of their equally powerful music video on January 26th. Drawing inspiration from their love of classic southern rock legends like ZZ Top and Lynyrd Skynyrd, MATNEY delivers a raw and authentic sound that is sure to captivate listeners.
But their music is not just rooted in the rich history of southern rock – frontman Michael Matney infuses his own personal experiences growing up on a farm and his strong faith into each and every one of their songs. Produced by multi-platinum producer Stevie Salas, who has worked with icons such as Justin Timberlake and Mick Jagger, “All Fired Up” is a co-write between Salas and Matney himself. Salas also lends his remarkable guitar skills to the track, adding to its undeniable appeal. But this isn’t Matney’s first taste of success in the music industry.
Fans of the underground post-punk scene may recognize him from his cult hit band White Boy and The Average Rat Band, with their albums now going for hundreds of dollars in the collector’s market. And for those who prefer a more southern sound, Matney has also made a name for himself as the former guitarist for music legend David Alan Coe. With glowing reviews and admiration from both the post-punk and southern rock communities, it’s clear that MATNEY is a force to be reckoned with. And now, with “All Fired Up” set to be released under Roulette Records, there is no doubt that this band is on the rise. So don’t miss out on the opportunity to add MATNEY to your music library.
Let their powerful vocals, gritty guitar riffs, and relatable lyrics be the soundtrack to your playlists. Whether you’re a die-hard fan of southern rock or looking for something new to add to your rotation, “All Fired Up” is a must-listen for all music lovers. Keep an eye out for its release and get ready to experience the southern-rock revival with MATNEY.
