This work was commissioned by a good friend, Nancy Lowry, and is intended as accompaniment tracks to Holiday singalongs. Each song provides the melody and at least one key change. Perfect background music for the Holiday season to come!
Murder Hornet vs. Great White Shark (based on ‘Bumblebee Boogie’)
This is a piece I recorded at home based on the Rimsky-Korsakov piece and reimagined as a surf-guitar piece (with accordion/drums). Every track was recorded in one take at home. My daughter Mirabelle provided the incredible graphics/animation. See what happens when these two ‘sworn enemies’ battle it out!
Andrew Neil album ‘Freak’ (I composed/arranged/performed all guitar parts)
Artist Andrew Neil writes some amazingly expressive songs. I was honored to compose and perform guitar parts for his album ‘Freak’. Please check it out!
Charlistan (original composition by Matty Metcalfe)
This piece is both a homage to my adopted hometown of Charlottesville, Virginia, and the music of Eastern Europe which I am quite fond of (and from where I was when I composed this piece). I play all the instruments including ukulele, accordion, bass, drums, synth trumpet!
Last Tango in Budapest (Boris Kovac)–performed by Matty Metcalfe and the FearShe Quartet
I recorded this beautiful, off-kilter piece with Brian Caputo-drums, Diego Lane-bass, Kassia Arbabi-fiddle. There’s something magical and mystical about it that I hope you experience as well!
Suspicious Blues (From live SOLO piano performance @Fellini’s-Charlottesville)
I performed a solo show based on New Orleans stride piano & Jeff Romano recorded and engineered it. Full playlist to follow.
Matty Metcalfe SOLO PIANO (11 tracks) @Fellini’s
These 11 tracks were recorded at Fellini’s in Charottesville, Va by Jeff Romano. Done in one take on a magical Valentine’s Day…nothing like stride piano to set the mood!
