Melodically addictive new songs of relationships and life

It's been three years since singer-songwriter Matt Wertz released an album, but he's got some good excuses–relentless touring, a label change (he's now with the innovative Nettwerk label), and the trials and tribulations of life. He's back with a vengeance with his new release, "Weights & Wings," which carries reflections of all of these. All the songs on the album are about relationships, romantic and otherwise, and Matt says he hopes listeners will be able to identify with his music and find a “windows down, sing along at the top of your lungs” quality about the new album, too. We at The Ark don't have any windows, but we're pretty sure you'll feel good about the new directions and depth in Matt Wertz's music–which remains as melodically addictive as ever! Pittsburgh native and young master pop craftsman Steve Moakler opens the show.
