Somewhere in the Southern Hemisphere, in a city known for its gothic style architecture, a singer-songwriter was born whose life would change forever hearing a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers album which grew into a love for bands like The Jayhawks, Wilco, and Whiskeytown. Native of Dunedin, the second-largest city in the South Island of New Zealand, Matt Joe Gow has lately been touring the Northern Hemisphere in Europe and the United States. With a sound reminiscent of Counting Crows meets Life is a Highway’s Tom Cochrane, he’s opened for Chris Isaak. Matt Joe Gow has already been a two time winner of the Music Victorian Awards, New Zealand Country Music Honors, and most recently he landed the esteemed title of official showcase artist at Americana Fest in Nashville. Here’s our interview with Matt Joe Gow.
