Randy Matthews is a singer-songwriter from Port aux Basques, Newfoundland, rooted in country and Americana. He began writing songs at 15, recording two albums as a teenager before returning to music with renewed focus as an adult. Drawing inspiration from artists like Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, and Chris Stapleton, Randy’s sound is built on honest storytelling and a timeless, roots-driven feel.
A two-time MusicNL nominee for Country Artist of the Year (2022, 2023), Randy has toured extensively across Newfoundland with NL Promotions, appearing in productions including Nashville 80’s, Nashville 90’s, A Legendary Christmas, A Grand Ol’ Christmas, and American Outlaws: A Tribute to the Highwaymen. He has performed at major events such as Cavendish Beach Music Festival and Jigs & Wheels.
In 2025, Randy sold out two nights of his independently produced show, A Tribute to Chris Stapleton, at The Majestic Theatre in St. John’s. The show returns May 21 and 22, 2026.
