Mat Kearney

Over his career, Mat Kearney has released seven studio LPs. The self-titled “song explorer” claimed the #1 spot on iTunes due to the success of his 2011 album Young Love, topped multiple Billboard charts, made four entries into the Hot 100, and had over 2.5 billion global streams. 

Kearney, a multi-Platinum songwriter and producer, has performed live on The Today Show, Ellen, The Tonight Show, Letterman, and Jimmy Kimmel Live! Throughout his career, Kearney garnered rave reviews from USA Today, Entertainment Weekly, People, Billboard, PARADE, and Marie Claire. While on tour, Kearney has shared the road with everyone from John Mayer to NEEDTOBREATHE. 

Kearney’s music can’t be confined by genre, with each album being different from the last. Some songs incorporate hip-hop and folk pop, while others lean towards soft rock, and some even include EDM! 

“Every time I make a record, the goal is to break the mold that you built on the record before,” Kearney said in an interview with Santa Barbara Independent. “Usually if I did one thing on one record, I tend to somewhat be the other extreme on the next one.”

In 2024, Kearney released his eponymous album with songs like “Good Thing Going On” and “Headlights Home.”
