Matt Anderson walked on stage (fresh outta the shower in his bus probably), plugged in his guitar, riffed with the audience, tuned his strings and did this... This is how a legend performs.
Instead of listening to this musical genius we get WAP in the radio. This guy is friggin’ amazing. I get the chills hearing his sing and play. I’m speechless
@@benjaminconrad3674 Give your heart and soul into it, train like you never have before and you will be able to. Doesnt matter how far away you are from starting. I started singing at 20, and still reached a good state of where people enjoy hearing me and really like my voice. Its just a lot of dedication and training. :D You got it if you try.
This man is soooo talented. I hope that any time HE gets the blues he returns to these comments and realizes how much people respect and love him and what a great big difference HIS soul has made in our world! MATT ... thank you so much for sharing your love of music and gift of voice & fingers! I love your playing. 🕊🕊🕊✨✨✨
A man with phenomenal talent unfortunately barely heard of. This guy should be more famous than pretty much any mainstream pish out there. Constantly brainwashed with the turgid, uninspired, tasteless shit all over our TV. Boils my blood. Keep it up Matt, looking forward to seeing you live in Glasgow soon.
I love his Blues heart; listen to that man! He does some softer stuff but I'd have to say that this heavy blues sound has such entertaining vigor... I can't wait to see more.
OMFG, I love blues, but this! This is on a whole level all on it's own. Love Matt's comedic timing at the beginning of this. I just found out I missed his gig down under in my home state. Matt, you gotta come back to Melbourne, I will take a 2nd mortgage out so I can get tix..
Chris Stapleton made other people famous off of his music before he decided to take the reins of his own songs and make it big. This guy is awesome but not better then Chris Stapleton. Both are good guitar players and blues singers hands down.
You throw me water when I’m drowning You take my kindling when I’m cold You give me matches when I’m burning And give me pennies for my gold You’ve got a heart as hard as diamonds Shines like a piece of coal Buried deep in the ground Like your coal black soul You got one hand in my pocket The other hand’s on the spade Sending me to the bottle And into my early grave Now I’ve tried like hell to leave you But you keep pulling me back Your love is like a freight train And I’m tied to the track No soul on earth could love you No man can satisfy Only hell’s own fire will ever warm you You should be the devil’s bride
This Song gave me Tears, thinking about my Farther that I never met, I'm 48 with 7 Gran childrens, I'm half Cook island Rarotonga and half White, I call my self One Night Stand Child, but this Song make me Happy and think Forward, Kia Orana (may you live long)🇨🇰🇨🇰🇨🇰 Good Song
Just discovered this man tonight! He is strong, real, passionate and deserves respect with much applause! I am feeling influence of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Chris Stapleton + John Lee Hooker in this right off! Matt is HIS own, owning his style and gives me a meatloaf visual!!
I own this song on pretty much every platform it is available on.....Ive seen this video several times This performance gives me chills .....This would be amazing on 180gr vinyl
Matt is absolutely amazing...great voice but oh man that playing how he makes these songs his own... please come to England and Margate in particular!!
A couple of yrs ago I called up to the Halifax tourist office to see if anyone was playing there during my vaca week,,the girl said “Matt Andersen”, I said WHO’s Matt Andersen? ..looked him up, saw he was playing in NYC the following week ,... Bought a ticket ..big wow ! He was amazing! 3 weeks was later I was in Halifax listening to him & the mellotones & buying his cds & dvds..you don’t get better than him.
Pure energy! Seems to be he was born with that guitar in his hands, thanks so much for that video, it's a real delight to watch such an excellent performer.
This is amazing. But, if you want to impress anyone who's seen him, it sucks. Because you can't just out-sing him, you have to out-play him at the same time. Both are extremely difficult on their own, but together they're damn near impossible. Keep it up Matt! Your making us all look bad, but we love you for it!
Matt is awesome! I saw him in the finals take Memphis down at the International Blues Challenge. I ain't seen a solos act like him in a while. What power.
Just a month ago, I walked past a street musician that played Devil's Bride. His version was good, but more importantly, he reminded me if this one. So I gave him 50 dollars. That is how enormously good Matt Andersen is, just being reminded of him is almost worth paying a concert ticket.
There is no word to describe when that chair goes back. The most effin' talented thing I've ever witnessed. Love that NB guy. He definitely should have had more success.

He’s so damn good. I’ve seen him twice live. Both times at one point I was moved to tears.
@@erikehinger5828 me too! Just saw him in Meaford. Speechless.
Matt you re my favorite singer
from Cecile leclerc grand falls n b
Love your silent night song
Will you ever come to Quebec
Would love to see you perform xox
I've just come across this Man my God..It's April 2019
Why isn't this on the radio all day!
I know, I'm thinking damn where has he been all this time. Wish I discovered him sooner.
@@lovedove2661 same here, could not be happier.
My day was yesterday and my life will never be the same. Can not wait to see this legend live in Novato in August.
go home, boy.
I've listened to this a hundred times, and 5:38 still gives me goose bumps!
+BOB24502 Totally, chills
Same here. The part just before that when he's tellin the little story leading up to it paints gives a great visual too lmao
Favorite part of the song! This heavily inspired my novel... it's just so raw
My word - yes - Yuslaaik!
yea man.. got chills all over. no girl wants to be the protagonist here..
you can tell by his mannerisms that he's not just playing music, he's feeling and living it.
Yes... he IS the music. He becomes it.
FKIN A 🤟
This performance was what the standing ovation was invented for!
I cannot express my disbelief that this man is not on the international stage.
Why have I never heard of this dude before he's awesome 💯
Instead of listening to this musical genius we get WAP in the radio. This guy is friggin’ amazing. I get the chills hearing his sing and play. I’m speechless
That's because this is what "wap", really is
Dude I’ve been sending his stuff for the last 3 months help me out
I love during the solo how he keeps the bass string as a beat going.. That's mighty impressive.
I just found today, i try to learn Guitar since 6 years, i will never reach anything like these xD
But i started late with 17, and not with enough time spent on it
just what i thought right now!
Listen to Tommy Emmanuel

Damn! Coming back to this about once a year since finding him. Just amazing!

MATT ... thank you so much for sharing your love of music and gift of voice & fingers!
I love your playing. 🕊🕊🕊✨✨✨
Hello ,how are you doing today?
Just had the WORST day ever, then.,.. Discovered this guy!
Wow , this is the first I've seen or heard of him . Mercy , he is Bad to The Bone ...
Wow...how did I not hear of this guy before today!!!
Fortunate to enjoy Matt last night in Albuquerque, NM as he opened for Tab Benoit! Wow!
this man plays with passion and soul, pouring everything he has into his performances and songs, something that is lacking in todays music

Constantly brainwashed with the turgid, uninspired, tasteless shit all over our TV. Boils my blood. Keep it up Matt, looking forward to seeing you live in Glasgow soon.
that's the unfortunate story with the vast majority of skilled musicians. Thankfully this dude does get to travel and eat, better than most.
LindseyBuckinghamIsGod Love your screen name, totally agreed.
And I totally agree with every word written, this guy is a massive talent , very underrated . Unfortunately.
I love his Blues heart; listen to that man!
He does some softer stuff but I'd have to say that this heavy blues sound has such entertaining vigor... I can't wait to see more.
Simply brilliant!!! I only recently discovered Matt's music, and I'm totally blown away by it.
OMFG, I love blues, but this! This is on a whole level all on it's own. Love Matt's comedic timing at the beginning of this. I just found out I missed his gig down under in my home state. Matt, you gotta come back to Melbourne, I will take a 2nd mortgage out so I can get tix..
This guy is Canada's best kept secret… Matt you rock !! Canada's Chris Stapleton.. But even better…
Guitar-wise definitely, vocal wise, debatable.
Its debatable, Chris has written songs for a ton of stars! Matt is talented, making his way, a great no doubt.

Chris Stapleton made other people famous off of his music before he decided to take the reins of his own songs and make it big. This guy is awesome but not better then Chris Stapleton. Both are good guitar players and blues singers hands down.
He ain't better than Stapleton...lets just hold on there chief
Seven minutes very well spent. God bless the musicians🎸
Music like this is my drug
That makes Matt Anderson my drug dealer.
Saw him live in Peterborough with my dad. What an absolute legend.
I saw this amazing fella open for old crow medicine show a few years back. He stole the show, hands down.
Hello ,how are you doing today?
My..my..what the hell? I cannot believe this is the 1st time I have seen or listen to him. Badasssssss my friend!
Damn Incredible Mr Matt Andersen!!! That oozed with soul and passion. Huge Respect!
Hello ,how are you doing today?
One of the best songs I’ve ever heard. It sounds like there are 2 or 3 guitars at once playing. Makes that guitar sound hot.
You throw me water when I’m drowning
You take my kindling when I’m cold
You give me matches when I’m burning
And give me pennies for my gold
You’ve got a heart as hard as diamonds
Shines like a piece of coal
Buried deep in the ground
Like your coal black soul
You got one hand in my pocket
The other hand’s on the spade
Sending me to the bottle
And into my early grave
Now I’ve tried like hell to leave you
But you keep pulling me back
Your love is like a freight train
And I’m tied to the track
No soul on earth could love you
No man can satisfy
Only hell’s own fire will ever warm you
You should be the devil’s bride
This Song gave me Tears, thinking about my Farther that I never met, I'm 48 with 7 Gran childrens, I'm half Cook island Rarotonga and half White, I call my self One Night Stand Child, but this Song make me Happy and think Forward, Kia Orana (may you live long)🇨🇰🇨🇰🇨🇰 Good Song
I love his voice! 😍 Great performance, great talent :)
Bloody awesome. UA-cam, you only suggest this to me 8 years later? What's wrong with you?
When you are metal but u are too good at playing blues rock 6:14
Actually metal came from blues
Metal hair
Soul voice
KFC body
Yet, it all works and I hope it’s never ends.
@@GuadalupeGuacamole amen.
@@GuadalupeGuacamole as a nurse you should know he's a bargin bucket away from kicking it.
Rhys Owen nah, he’s young and happy. Take your nasty negativity somewhere else troll boi.
If I were rich I'd book him a flight to my hometown, give him 50k just to play for me and my friends! This guy deserves a sold out world tour! Wow
Just discovered this man tonight! He is strong, real, passionate and deserves respect with much applause! I am feeling influence of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Chris Stapleton + John Lee Hooker in this right off! Matt is HIS own, owning his style and gives me a meatloaf visual!!
Hello ,how are you doing today?
Once in a while, many times unexpected, something or someone comes along and reminds you how great things can truly be. Wow.
Showed him to my year 4 class a few weeks ago and they were BLOWN. AWAY.
UA-cam is hooking it up today!!! This is gold!! 🎶✨🎶
First saw him when he opened for Johnny Lang…I had no idea who he was and he completely stole the entire show. Once in a lifetime experience.
Please make cd just like these live performances when your voice is so wild, beautiful
chills ever time i listen to this song.. love it.
Definitly the best dirty blues i heard in my life. This giant blues guy such amazing !
His power is insane!

This man is a favourite of mine I love the passion he puts into a song.
Hello ,how are you doing today?
Agradesço a Deus de ter a oportunidade de ouvir matt andersen... Esse cara faz show de verdade.
It's obvious now that he is "THE KING OF BLUES"
Just amazing !
So TOTALLY amazing performance ! Thanks for your music. Greetings from WW2HistoryHunter
I saw him on August 22, opening for Blue Rodeo. He was awesome.
I've seen him perform in 2018 in Ponte Vedra (Florida), awsome! Difficult to stay in your seat ;-)
Matt Andersen Radio is now the only channel I am subscribed to on UA-cam Music.
I own this song on pretty much every platform it is available on.....Ive seen this video several times This performance gives me chills .....This would be amazing on 180gr vinyl
Honestly it brought tears of every emotion when he spoke up. Great song!
His ability to connect with an audience is second to none.
Time to start a vocal and guitar legends playlist. Holy fuck Matt.
Wow, Jesus, i love it. Matt u r great. Thx for this one
Matt is absolutely amazing...great voice but oh man that playing how he makes these songs his own... please come to England and Margate in particular!!

An amazing musician and so thrilled to have him coming to Vancouver Island in Feb/20
Hello ,how are you doing today?
5:25 is where the goosebumps show up!!
“No soul on earth can love you” Incredible.
I feel like atleast 1000 of these views are from me. This is a banger!
Got me with the full body goose bumps!
Boyo boy is Matt good! Damn Son, great post Mate, Cheers!
I came across this guy's music today and was blown away and then I realized that he is from New Brunswick and I now I like him even more!

Well done Canada...well done
☺
Sometimes US's weird cousin doing well things 😂
First time hearing him. Marvelous.
Pure energy! Seems to be he was born with that guitar in his hands, thanks so much for that video, it's a real delight to watch such an excellent performer.
Helll yeahhh 👊,greetz from Belgium
Less than a millions views?! This is ridiculous!!
holy shite, I thought this guy was good, but now that I've listened to his live performances he's F***ING amazing !
I’m in love 😻 Nobody plays guitar like him and his voice it’s beyond words.
Wow, so awesome!
This guys voice makes my stomach fill with butterflies and sends shivers up my spine. His passion for playing is so sensational!
He is a goof
This is amazing. But, if you want to impress anyone who's seen him, it sucks. Because you can't just out-sing him, you have to out-play him at the same time. Both are extremely difficult on their own, but together they're damn near impossible. Keep it up Matt! Your making us all look bad, but we love you for it!

Smiling 👏👏👏👏 Powerful Blues 😎 Loving this again 👌
Matt Anderson is the best thing to come out of New Brunswick and for 50 years I thought I was
fkin underrated! nobody else found this inspiring? got damn, MATT.
Just a month ago, I walked past a street musician that played Devil's Bride. His version was good, but more importantly, he reminded me if this one. So I gave him 50 dollars. That is how enormously good Matt Andersen is, just being reminded of him is almost worth paying a concert ticket.
WOW, this man is real deal. SIckening to listen, shiver
There is no word to describe when that chair goes back. The most effin' talented thing I've ever witnessed. Love that NB guy. He definitely should have had more success.
If my ears ever had a baby, I'd name it Matt Andersen
He is awesome!
That was awesome. Great Job!
Found you today, you are amazing. 🇨🇦
Open D tuning, with a D chord (000300), F chord (333333), and G chord(555555).

as soon as 1:12 hit, I knew he was going to kill this performance!
If your listening to this in 2022 you still got good taste
