About John Mateer

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My dad would always play the opening of ‘2112’ by Rush on my way to soccer practice. Whenever Geddy Lee would break out with “DON’T ANNOY US FURTHER! WE’VE GOT WORK TO DO!” it would send me an my friend into hysterics. Love Rush to this day. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Cigarettes After Sex, Cigarettes After Sex Lady Gaga, Born This Way Special Edition Lorde, Melodrama These three albums were each present during a defining time in my life. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “The Key” The Key was written during a time when I was just beginning to learn how to love myself. I had been actually shocked at how hard it was to realize the simple truth that the key to happiness had been inside of myself the entirety of my life. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? When anyone knows the lyrics to my songs and will literally sing it out loud. It blows my mind.. I’m thinking “oh my god, I wrote that!” Besides that — I’ve just enjoyed the freedom of creation. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I’m going to put out a comedy album at some point! That I am sure of.
