SUMMARY:Matt The Electrician & Southpaw Jones/ Holiday Show
DESCRIPTION:Despite the name\, Matt the Electrician is no longer an elect
 rician\, focusing instead on a music career that has spanned the course 
 of two decades\, a dozen records\, and thousands of shows. His music\, h
 owever\, remains rooted in his blue collar beginnings\, with lyricism th
 at embraces the day-to-day\, the mundane\, the beauty of the ordinary. B
 efore moving to Austin\, TX and launching his career as a working-class 
 folk musician\, Matt Sever grew up on the West Coast. His parents played
  John Denver and Pete Seeger songs on the family record player\, and Mat
 t spent his earliest years surrounded by the things that would later fil
 l his own music: acoustic guitars\, timeless melodies\, lyrics that cele
 brated the joys and heartaches of everyday life\, and — above all else —
  a strong work ethic. That work ethic served him well in the mid-1990s\,
  when he moved to Austin in search of new horizons and better opportunit
 ies. Matt was already playing music by then\, and in need of a steady da
 y job\, he began working as an electrician\, spending his days wiring ho
 uses in the Texas heat. Once quitting time came\, he'd grab his guitar a
 nd drive himself to an evening show\, usually taking the stage in his wo
 rk boots and sweaty clothes. "Hi\; I'm Matt the Electrician\," he'd tell
  the crowd\, hoping his occupation would help explain his appearance. Th
 e name stuck\, even after his growing fan base at home\, as well as abro
 ad\, allowed him to hang up his pliers for good. Matt’s most recent rele
 ase\, a double CD called The Doubles\, is the culmination of a 2-year vi
 nyl 45 collaborative project. — Here’s what we know about Southpaw Jones
 : • He makes music for open-minded folks who dig singable melodies and o
 ne-of-a-kind lyrics. • He can write a decent song about anything. • He i
 s left-handed. • He plays a right-handed guitar upside down… • …without 
 a high E string. • He treads lightly on the thin ice of irreverent hones
 ty. • He has lived in Houston\, Nashville\, and Los Angeles. • He curren
 tly lives in Austin. • He performs solo if not with Matt the Electrician
 . • He has had the honor of opening for Dan Bern\, Slaid Cleaves\, Fred 
 Eaglesmith\, Terri Hendrix\, Lisa Loeb\, and James McMurtry. • He has pe
 rformed with 5 instruments in 17 states during the past 20 years. • Crit
 ics say he has “that most amazing ability to be hilarious and heartbreak
 ing at the same time.” • Author Spike Gillespie calls him “the left-hand
 ed Elvis Costello and the best songwriter in the land.” • He is a softwa
 re engineer by day (and some nights). Visit LinkedIn for all that. • Sou
 thpaw calls himself “Slim” and sleeps in the fetal position.\n\nTickets:
