“Matt has an amazing ability to capture a band's true sound on tape--whether it's a singer songwriter, or an over-ambitious indie-rock band, Matt always seems to get it right in the studio. Definitely the break out producer to look out for.”[1]
Jay Harren - A&R Manager, Columbia Records
“Album of the Year - Lydia's "Illuminate"[2]

“Talented people are easy to find in this world. It's also easy to find people who are driven and dilligent. It's far more rare to find someone who is both talented AND driven. Throw in some enthusiasm and humility and you're halfway to Matt Malpass.”[3]
Aaron Marsh - Lead singer of Copeland
