About the musicians

Scott Stein is a Kensington-based pianist, songwriter, composer, and music director. His plain-spoken vocal delivery calls to mind Paul Simon’s everyman-poet, while his piano chops have garnered comparisons to Bruce Hornsby and Elton John. His latest EP, Uphill, released in 2022, was designed as a sort of song cycle about grief, loss, and ultimately coming out on the other side. In addition to his songwriting, Scott is a sought-after collaborator, accompanist, and choral composer and conductor.

Matt Singer brings crafty lyricism and a warm sound to a surprising range of catchy, wistful folk-pop songs that run the gamut from the melancholy and earnest to the goofy and ironic. More than just a wordsmith or “craftsman” (Time Out), Matt makes music that reaches people because it taps into something true. He has been compared to artists from Paul Simon and Elvis Costello to The Magnetic Fields and They Might Be Giants. Brooklyn-based with New Jersey roots, Matt is a presence in the New York City music scene. He has played premier New York venues including Bowery Ballroom, Joe’s Pub, Gramercy Theatre, and Mercury Lounge, and has toured in the U.S., the U.K., and Europe. Matt’s live performance has been described as a “joyous roots sound strung through an urban outlet” (Village Voice). With a combination of his “silly yet sincere” persona (The Deli), improvisational stage antics, and infectious melodies, Matt generates a cozy atmosphere at his shows, transforming his audience into a small community.
