Mat Kearney: Young Love

Mat Kearney is a singer/songwriter based in Nashville, TN. He has received critical acclaim for his debut album Nothing Left to Lose.

His most recent album, Young Love, was released on August 2, 2011. The songs on this album are a mix of pop, rock and acoustic.

While listening to the songs, especially Hey Mama, I couldn't help but smile and tap my foot to the beat of the music. The finger snaps and claps were so catchy, before I knew it, I was snapping and clapping along with the song!

We've all listened to songs about love, friendship and relationships. But there is something about Mat Kearney's songs, specifically Ships in the Night, Count On Me, Sooner or Later, and my favorite Learning to Love Again, that make them easy to relate to. There is a wonderful honesty in his lyrics which made it easy for me to connect with and understand the emotions he was conveying.

I loved listening to his album while driving around running errands or while cleaning my house. It made the task at hand a lot more bearable. My 4 year old LOVES Hey Mama so much, she gets up and dances whenever she hears it!
