Great Video and finding more out about Matt. Thanks so much Dan!
Wow! Thank you Matt and Dan. Very inspiring, heartfelt words.
Matt, you spoke about the experience of having a guiding vision of a story before writing it. Feeling like the stage was set, and you just needed to let it happen. Very occasionally, mostly during meditation retreats, I’ve experienced that feeling- like everything was in it’s right place in my life. Or would just fall into place by itself if I let it. Nothing to do but enjoy the process. In the past few months that feeling has settled over me in a different context. When I first heard the new Jeff Beck record – and seeing the music industry through your words.
Thanks man.
Hey Matt,
I think you have an excellent concept with the online guitar lessons, it is definitely futuristic and accessible to guitar aficionados. Good luck on your endeavors!
Regards,
