Album Notes

Robert Matter has over thirty years experience as a singer/songwriter.

He plays gutiar, saxophone, bass guitar and upright bass.

His musical roots are grounded in the folk music of the 60's and 70's.

He covers a catalog of songs by artists like Bob Dylan, Simon and Garfunkel, Gordon Lightfoot, Tim Hardin, Kris Kristofferson and John Denver.

He also performs many of his own compositions as well.

His CD entitled "Songman" is a representation of some of the finest songs written during the 60's and 70's.

It has an even flow of what you might expect in a coffeehouse setting from a solid performer.

He has a strong confident voice which is easy on the ears.

The guitar mastery of Stephen Bennett is utilized throughout the CD matching Robert's voice perfectly.

Warren Kurtz of "The City Magazine" from Roanoke Virginia says.. "If you are looking for a CD, with mainly familiar songs, to help capture the calm mood of a coffeehouse, "Songman" is for you."

Robert Matter is a member of the Southwest Virginia Songwriters Association and the Tidewater Songwriter's Association. He is also a Board Member of The Tidewater Friends Of Folk Music.

Better than Awesome

Songman is a beautiful mix of voice and instruments.  With Robert's incredible voice, not a lyric is lost.  This CD is a good selection for just sitting around and listening by yourself or fill the room with familar melodys while entertaining guests.  Better yet, load it into your i-pod and take Songman with you.  Sing on Robert for you be the Songman!

Great CD.  Your voice is so mellow and I like your style, especially "Please come to Boston".  Continue with your music.

One of the clearest voices I've heard in years
author: Jenny Brooks
                            
This is definitely one of the best cds I've heard in a long time. The music took me on a walk down memory lane and just totally relaxed me. Bob's voice is clear and confident,and VERY right on, which made the songs he picked sound even better. I LOVED his renditions of Mr. Bojangles and The Boxer.
