SINGER/SONGWRITER MATT CUSSON

His vocals have been described as sexy, soulful, romantic and rich. That's my very special guest, Matt Cusson, for Wed. Nov.18, 1PM-2PM MST (ladies--he's single!). He plays classics to his own originals. People are not only singing the praises of this incredible young musician, but are quickly becoming devoted fans. Thousands of fans waited breathlessly for Matt's debut solo CD, released December 2008, showcasing his incredible songwriting ability, stunning arrangements, tremendous vocals. It holds true for people like James Taylor, Brian McKnight, "Today" host Meredith Vierra and "American Idol" judge Randy Jackson, all say the same thing: Matt Cusson is an extraordinary musician, a remarkable singer, a gifted piano player and a star on the rise.

Matt's talent is unique with his style of R & B, Soul, Gospel, jazz, pop and rock. A self-taught piano and guitar player, he breezes through songs with his soothing style. He can sing with enough soul to wow Brian McKnight or even slip into a jazzy number with the coolness of Harry Connick Jr.

Matt began singing at age 2. Some of his musical influences are Stevie Wonder, James Taylor, Nat King Cole, and Miles Davis. Later, his passion for music led him to the prestigious Berklee School of Music in Boston, where he played with John Mayer, among other well known artists. Matt has been touring around the world with Brian McKnight – who discovered Matt & has been a mentor ever since. Matt has toured with Christiana Aguilera and worked with James and Livingston Taylor, Stanley Clarke, Babyface, Bebe Winans, as well as many others. He's performed live on THE VIEW and LIVE WITH REGIS & KELLY.
