Matt Urmy

Matt Urmy is a new world poet. Born in New York City, but raised in Tennessee, he walks in the footsteps of free thinkers. His performances weave listeners between the gritty free verse of the 1960’s and smoking folk-country blues. Labeled an “Americana” artist, his voice is etched with the weathered years of life polished with the sad pangs of hope that mirrors the depth of his writing. You cannot simply listen to any song once--every line is wrought with subtext and meaning that distills our existence—our lives.
