Matt McGuire is a Toronto based independent musician who inspires audiences through musical storytelling with everything from melodic stadium anthems to folk-punk ballads. Matt's first single When I'm Done I'm Done gives fans a chance to reminisce the early 1990s with notable Smashing Pumpkins and Green Day influences, and strives to capture the exact moment when life-changing decisions are made. Matt's musical journey draws influence from Smashing Pumpkins, Frank Turner, Radiohead, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Counting Crows, and others. Firmly rooted in the vast alt rock movement he affectionately refers to as "Dad Rock", Matt writes songs to evoke feelings of nostalgia within fans of the era while simultaneously offering them fresh, new material. Matt's lyrics are an autobiography, telling relatable stories of youth, love, victory, loss, and life in general.
