September 03, 2016

Raised in New Jersey, Matt Colligan has performed globally in fulfillment of his endeavors with Italian music industry mogul, Umberto Labozzetta and Lab Promotion (Milan, Italy). Matt has shared bills with such artists as Brian Vander Ark (The Verve Pipe), Marcy Playground, Squirrell Nut Zippers, Tobi Lightman (Atlantic/Lava Records), Frankie Valli (The Four Seasons), Marc Rizzo (Soulfly), and has been featured on Fuse TV. In August, 2008, Matt was named, “Artist of the Month” on New York’s 99.1FM WTBQ. Since then, his music has entered rotations of various radio stations throughout the tri-state area. Matt’s debut release (self-titled) was recorded and produced by Tom Gioia and Andy Snitzer (Visionary Music Group). Visionary Music Group has worked with artists such as Bon Jovi, Beck, Elvis Costello, Paul Simon, the Rolling Stones, and have numerous Indie music and major television/film credits. Matt’s sophomore release, “All The While,” was released in April of 2014.

Colligan’s newest single “The Turnaround” was written, recorded, and produced by Matt Colligan and Mixed by Anthony Dini. The song was written about a friend who had spent years fighting off anxiety about making a change in his life. Colligan has great love and respect for this person, and really admired him for getting past the anxiety and accomplishing his goal. That concept worked very well with this particular melody and ultimately became a full piece. The video was filmed and produced by JVR Films.
