Matt Wayne and Company
MATT WAYNE & COMPANY
Matt Wayne possesses what much of the rockers with so-called red dirt in their veins are sorely lacking: kick-ass southern soul. This is a North Texas based artist who captivated a 2008 Larry Joe Taylor Festival crowd with a stirring set that induced not only goose bumps from the audience, but a hearty standing ovation as well. Knowing the emotions that Wayne’s music can arouse in a crowd, it’s of little shock that Wayne was asked to be the regular opener for the highly attended Wednesday night series at Overtime Sports Bar & Grill in Burleson, where he has frequently set the stage for many of the greats in Texas Country, including Bleu Edmondson and Jason Boland, among many others.
