As a former musician I had to watch closely to how Matt Bolton performs. After processing all that he does to create his music I was very impressed. I have to admit my first impression was - this guy has recorded tracks for his background music - WRONG! I am usually very impressed with artists like Geddy Lee of Rush who sings, plays bass, organ bass foot pedals, and keyboards at the same time. That would be too simple for Matt. Geddy would have to get rid of Neal Peart and play the acoustics as well to keep up with him.
Matt has toured with bands like Todd Rundgren and Jess Collin Young band (that I actually had the opportunity to play a few songs with at the Inn of the Beginning in Cotati many moons ago). Rundgren recently said "I knew Matt was a player - that's why I hired him. But, it wasn't until I a saw him do his own thing that I realized what an entertainer he is." according to the Kauai Music Scene.
