It's episode 25 of The Matt Kollock Show! 

A milestone episode, for sure. It took three years to get here. So, like, eight eps a year. Not bad! Not…

I think the first time I entered any kind of music-related contest was when I was about 14 years old. My little guitar buddies and I heard about a guitar shred-off competition happening on the campus of the University of…

Sometimes people ask me, “What does a music producer do?” I've noticed a fairly wide gulf between what people think a record producer does (and is responsible for) and what a producer actually does. So I decided to write about…

The Matt Kollock Show is back!

It's been nearly two years. Two years that felt like 20 years in…

Psst…

I heard you're into playlists. You're in luck. I got this one for you. On Spotify. It's really good. It's the stuff I was listening to (and being inspired by) while making my EP, DO YOU FEEL IT…

Gosh, it's been quite a busy year so far.

Busy with good things, mostly. Looks like this might shape up to be one of the really good years. I hope it's the same for you.

Anyway, one of the things…

I'm excited to write about some of my favorite music of 2022! It's been an exhilarating year of listening for me. Lots of new stuff. Lots of inspiration. Lots of cool grooves. I've been seeing the lists starting to pop…

Today was the day Spotify unleashed its annual Wrapped feature to listeners and artists. November 30, 2022. With a month left to go in the calendar year. What happens to the music we all listen to in December? Does it…

Happy Thanksgiving! The most beloved American holiday with the most vile origin story. Here we are.

Gratitude

Every day in my journal I write about something for which I am grateful. They say it's a helpful practice for people like…

"Creative" as a noun is demeaning. You are not a "creative." You are a CREATOR. You made the thing. You had the idea and executed it. You synthesized influences, inspiration and ability to bring something into the world that…

Hello. It's me, singer-songwriter Matt Kollock. I just remembered I have a website, so I thought I'd add some content. Let you know what's happening in and around my coordinates. Stuff like that.

Speaking of coordinates, they've really been changing…

You made it back!

Welcome to Episode 21 of The Matt Kollock Show!

It's the second installment of microorganism's oral history. And historically the middle ones of these things are the best, right? We'll see about that.

This…

May the 14th be with you!

It's the day. Today. Today is the day. Today the album is released. It's out there. Available. Ready to experience. Fuckin' A.

Holy crap!

It's really, actually happening – my debut solo album, 🦠microorganism🦠, is arriving in the world and onto all the platforms this Friday, May 14, 2021. I could not be more relieved and excited.

It's been…

It's a new episode of the podcast! I think this is a good one. It's all about working together. Collaborating. Making magic by gathering in art. With people just like you, dear listener!

Happenings and Such

How are you? Can…

Hey. Are you looking for the perfect 60-some-odd-hour playlist to provide the soundtrack for the next approximately two and a half days of your life?

Cool. Now that I have your attention, what if I told you this playlist contains…

I have been a guitar player for…

I have some weird ideas about where music comes from. Well, maybe they aren't so weird. But they feel weird in the context of authorship and ownership and stuff like that. 

Episode 13 of The Matt Kollock Show podcast covers…

It's another episode of The Matt Kollock Show podcast!

This is a lean, mean episode, clocking in at fewer than 58 minutes, but it is packed with goodies, as always.

It's Tiny Desk Week

I wasn't sure if I was…

How was your week?

Mine was pretty eventful! I celebrated the twin high holidays of Bicycle Day and 4/20. I became the voice of the poor dog who lives next door and is neglected by her owners. The neighbors did…

Friends, I hope you have enjoyed the launch of The Matt Kollock Show as much as I have.

It's been exciting assembling the first four episodes and sharing them with you. The show has been a blast to do thus…
