About this user

Boston guitarist Matthew Joy, an innovative musician and composer, brings forth a refreshing sound, blending different styles of music including jazz, folk, brazilian, blues, rock, and world. His compositions and guitar playing are thoughtful, eclectic, and refined. Born 1975 just outside Boston Matthew began playing guitar at the age of 13. During high school he began studying with composer Sandy Prager. It was at this time Matthew began a fruitful and ongoing relationship with Prager as his mentor. Throughout college Matthew was immersed in developing the craft of composing and solo guitar playing. Studying with Prager and being introduced to the music of such artists as Ralph Towner, and Egberto Gismonti, Matthew was hooked onto the sound of the acoustic guitar.This style of playing was intriguing to Matt because of the intimacy, and subtleties of acoustic nylon and 12-string guitars, coupled with the fact that not many people were doing this. Matthew began broadening his style studying jazz composition at Berklee College of Music in Boston . Here he was composing for large ensembles, studying varieties of Latin, African, Eurasian, and Asian music, and taking guitar lessons with Jon Damian and Mick Goodrick. Matthews compositions have been performed and recorded by other artist in Boston, New York , And Europe. Matthew has been performing his music throughout New England and teaching guitar in Boston . He has recorded two albums, "Pulse" a recording of solo works, and "Omnifarious".
