Matt Hoffer

Who said hockey players/ex real estate brokers can't rock? Not us. A smart, amiable, indie rocker, Matt Hoffer is finally seeing his dream come true as a full time musician.

After several years in corporate America, Matt lived a comfortable lifestyle, but had the overwhelming feeling that he was wasting away in an office and not fulfilling himself or his potential. On stage or writing and rehearsing music was where he belonged - so he left his job in white-collar America to become a blue-collar musician, and has never looked back.

Originally from Chicago, his music has been described as infectious modern rock without the over-the top hooks and gimmicks often heard on radio today.

Matt spent considerable time playing the college circuit. In 2004 at a gig at Marist College he told the crowd, "I have the attention span of a five-year-old. Trying to get someone who would never even look my way was the motivation behind writing this song. I call it "Never Comfortable." That song has since become the title song on his latest CD. At the same show he said of himself "I'm like a human karaoke machine" - which may come in handy on Rock Star.

Matt Hoffer: Never Comfortable
If Jeff Buckley, John Mayer and the Police spent a couple of their younger years playing hard rock/metal, then mellowed out, this is what they'd sound like. An infectious modern rock record without the over-the top hooks and gimmicks that are often heard on the radio today.
