Phoenix, AZ/Greensboro, NC – Matt Irie Band Drop New Single “Run To”

The Matt Irie Band is back with another feel-good single, “Run To”. “Run To” combines sweet-sounding vocal harmonies with mellow, yet rocking guitar sounds and an overall relaxed vibe to fit perfectly into any playlist and match any mood. The groove and vibe that the Matt Irie Band brings to the table is undeniable; the band matches this carefree aura with a meaningful lyrical value which ultimately creates a well balanced track for listeners to not only hear, but understand

“Our music is meant to be experienced – we want you to be able to feel the grooves and the vibes in our songs. For a long time now, these last few years especially, it feels like we’ve all been chased, we’re all chasing something, or some combination of the two. Some of us don’t even know – we just know we’re running. We really wanted something that would encourage you to close your eyes, feel the music and face that question.” – Matt Irie

“Run To” features the talented Alexis Tajlia who fronts the alternative heavy hitting 3 piece group ‘Sin Soto’ out of Australia.
