Matt Thackston CD discography -Matt Thackston, Better Than Here (Self-released)"For an eclectic blend of Southern roots rock and bluegrass, this is the CD to pick up. Highlights include the country lyrics of "Blood Brothers" and the poignant "Someday Soon." It's a nice look into the immense pool of untapped talent coming out of Nashville." - AGCMT "The 20 Best Albums You Might Have Missed in 2003" -Matt Thackston/It Was Our Town"Great, heartfelt singing, plus earthy, poetic songwriting. The punchy production features searing electric guitar, rippling mandolin and taut drumming. If Matt doesn't have a hit with it, Kenny Chesney needs to hear his song pronto. Who IS this guy?"Robert K.

With smooth vocals and a knack for thoughtful, intelligent songwriting, Thackston is brimming with promise."Indie-Music -"Listening to Matt Thackston for the first time makes you wonder why you haven't heard this music before.

Proving again that independent music holds some of the best singers and songwriters that deserve to be heard."Rikk MathesonRikksRevues ...
