About the Artist
My Silent Bravery (MSB) is Matthew Wade.
"My Silent Bravery plays like a major label signing, from its production savvy, eloquent lyrics, authoritative imaging, polished web site, a dedicated Northeast U.S. fan following (200 shows in two years), merchandising—and most important, a chockablock collection of winning songs. My Silent Bravery is destined to make major noise." - Billboard Magazine Discoveries
Can't Quit, the new LP released on June 28, 2011, was produced by critically acclaimed record producer, Anthony Resta (Collective Soul, Guster, Shawn Mullins) and features a track with platnum selling recording artist, Matisyahu.
The release came on the heels of MSB's recent, successful placements on the CW's One Tree Hill, MTV's Real World and True Life, The Oxygen Network's Bad Girls Club, the History Channel's American Pickers and Animal Planet's Last Chance Highway. These placements, along with spins on over a combined 400 AAA, A/C and CMJ reporting college radio stations, a top ten hit on the FMQB A/C chart, (in addition to a rigorous show schedule) have helped the a band steadily and organically grow a dedicated fan base.
Matthew Wade is endorsed by Gibson.
