Matt Bailie, Matt Bailie

Cute country boy Matt Bailie is pricking up hearts with his upbeat romancers on his new self-titled album. Bailie isn't messing around when it comes to getting the love message across. Perhaps it's because love is still fresh in his 23-year-old heart. Bailie has a real country twang, and it shows in his lyrics, too: "I'm just an old hat, old boots, old jeans / I bought you this beer here just in case / you'd talk to a blue collar boy like me... I'm gonna be somebody wait and see / I'm like an old Chevy truck with Cadillac dreams. He is able to capture charater and play it out in song.

This is just the beginning for Matt Bailie. His charming persona is going to get him a lot of fans, and he's keeping with a reliably tasteful style of country music in the background - just a touch of the blues goes a long way.
