The Community Concert Hall’s Backstage Pass Concert Series continues Wednesday, March 12 at 7:30pm with an up-close evening featuring Matt the Electrician. This special series transforms the traditional concert experience by inviting the audience onto the stage itself, surrounding the artist in an intimate, limited-seating setting.
Based in Austin, Texas, Matt the Electrician has spent over twenty years building a dedicated following through thoughtful songwriting and consistent international touring. With more than a dozen releases, he has created a body of work that combines melodic folk-pop sensibility with sharp observation, humor, and emotional honesty.
His songs have found homes far beyond the stage, appearing in television and film, while his touring schedule has taken him across North America, Europe, and Japan. Festival appearances at some of the country’s most respected folk gatherings have further established him as a compelling live performer whose concerts feel both polished and personal.
His latest album, released in 2024, showcases the breadth of his songwriting—blending playfulness with reflection and an undercurrent of optimism. Known for performances that seamlessly transition between storytelling and song, Matt creates a relaxed atmosphere that draws audiences into the narrative of each piece.
The Backstage Pass format strengthens that connection. With listeners just feet away, every lyric, guitar note, and quiet moment hits with immediacy. It’s a concert meant not for spectacle but for shared experience.
