Never Had to Leave

Description

For Matt Maeson, the making of Never Had To Leave fulfills the restless creativity thats relentlessly fueled his musical output. The process of creating Never Had To Leave reaffirmed the need to work at his own pace and follow his instincts without compromise. The LP takes on a stunning tenderness as Maeson opens up about the infinite complexities and nuances of love. This record taught me to take as long as I need to make the album I want, instead of pushing out something because of outside pressure, he says. Ive never been someone to try and force the inspiration; I think youve got to go out and experience life to find something to write about. So for the most part, I just wait for the song to start writing itself, and hold onto the hope that itll keep happening that way for the rest of my life.
