Previous Selected Press:

"Understated, bare boned, intimate, the sound is pared back with guitar and banjo providing skeletal support for a set of songs portraying nature red in tooth and claw... a tremendous record." - Americana U.K.

"Listen closely and you'll hear in Bauer's heart-breaking tales of modern life, of condoms and coke cans left by cemetery fences, and of wildfires burning in the west. Influenced by country and bluegrass, Bauer is reinterpreting those traditions to create a haunting modern sound. -San Francisco Bay Guardian

"Once in a long while, I hear a piece of music, a song or even a whole album, that seems not merely valuable to me but also important. Where there was no apparent exit, it casually opens a door to where music might go next and whispers, "This way.'" - Pure Music

"'Carve It Out' unfolds like a mourner..s haiku...his hushed, intimate delivery bridges the past with the immediate...lyrical imagery, both poetic and raw." -Miles Of Music

"He's channeling something heavy, preparing the rest of us for a darkness or beauty that we aren't yet ready to receive. We believe Matt Bauer is a prophet." - Thrasher Magazine

"This disc examines the intermeshed realities of our world, its natural workings of beauty and cruelty, most painfully examined in a creepy reworking of lullaby "All the Pretty Horses." - Skyscraper
