Description

Goodbye Planet Earth is a rock-solid, complete work in 17 movements. Not just a mere collection of singles, Matthews fourth solo album is a journey that takes the listener on an outer-space adventure. The album is a noted departure from Matthews typical organic feel, combining highly electronic elements like synthesizers and loops with raw vocals, pianos, pennywhistles, and more. True to Matthew Ebel style, however, Goodbye Planet Earth contains songs that will make you laugh, sing along, or break out in goose bumps. Be warned, however, you may not be able to get most of the songs out of your head for weeks. Hes been called a soulful white guy, an acoustic geek-rocker, and the love child of Elton John and Billy Joel. His fans know him as everything from Matthew to Birdman to simply quot;Hot Wingsquot;. Whatever you call him, though, Matthew Ebel is more than just a singer-songwriter, hes a space pirate captain that takes his fans and friends beyond the mundane. Born in the Pacific Northwest, Matthew Ebel has spent all of his life singing and playing the piano. Starting off with fifteen years of piano lessons, six years of private voice, and over a decade of concert choirs and bands, he began his serious music career at Whitworth College. He earned his B.A. with honors in Music and spent an extra year building up a reputation in the Inland Northwest as an up-and-coming new artist. In the spring of 2002 Matthew crammed all of his stuff into a tiny UHAUL trailer and dragged it behind his car to Nashville. A little more than a year later he found himself playing the Grand Ole Opry with Mercury Records artist Billy Currington. He also performed with a number of local acts including The Peter Moon Band and Laura Clapp. Hes also produced custom music and audio for companies like Porter Novelli and crayon. As a testament to the power of an independent artist, his album Beer & Coffee came into being with little more than a Macintosh computer and some help from Matthews devoted friends. Once the album was completed, Matthew turned to emerging new mediums to spread the word – namely podcasting and Second Life. Thanks to the power of the music and the pioneering spirit of podcasters, Matthews reputation quickly spread across the globe as one of the biggest names in new media music.
