Following the announcement of his LP POPS, available August 16 via Lex Records, multi-artist Matthew Tavares (aka Matty) returns with new tracks “MADLY”/”AROUND THE WORLD.” “Madly” follows previous release “FOOL 4 U”

Matty says: “”MADLY” is another simple song about love. Like with every other song on this record, my only process was to be simple and direct and honest. Having gone to music school I went through a phase in my life where I raised my nose and scoffed at the idea of writing a song with two chords for 90% of it. Two chords, I mean c’mon, how am I supposed to convince you I’m a genius with that??? I think this whole record is a metaphor for my life; I have a tendency to make things way too complex for no reason.”

A founding member and keyboardist of BADBADNOTGOOD, Tavares has gone from being an in-demand producer with some of the biggest names in music to a songwriter and artist having collaborations with Kendrick Lamar, Ghostface Killah, MF DOOM, Tyler the Creator, Kali Uchis, Tavares has also played with Frank Ocean, soundtracked Virgil Alboh’s S/S 2019 runway show for Louis Vuitton, and penned songs for Post Malone, Rosalia, Travis Scott, and many motre.
