This week on I Was in That Band!, Grady sits down with singer, songwriter, and guitarist Matt Tedder. A Fort Worth native, Matt has already covered a lot of ground for a musician his age, recently settling into the vibrant Austin music scene.

Steeped in blues, classic rock, and country, Matt draws from all three to create a sound that’s distinctly his own. With the taste, feel, and musical instincts of someone twice his age, Matt brings a rare combination of maturity, restraint, and class to everything he plays. His latest album, Light Touch, showcases his distinctive approach to songwriting and guitar playing, blending his influences into something that feels both timeless and fresh.

Tune in as these two friends catch up, talk music, and trace Matt’s journey from Fort Worth to Austin, and beyond.
