Saw MDPS at the Chesterfield last night for the first time. Am I damn sorry I never heard them sooner!
This band will WRING YOU OUT (hey, the next CD title?) and spend 10 cents worth of your sanity nickle. There was no ratcheting up for Mat & the Saints last night… oh no… they popped the clutch from the start and layed down a rubber road through a valley of bramble covered goodness.
Tight like new shoes, every note drives home like a machine gun in a tunnel…it never misses.
Do yourself a favor and when Mat d. & the Profane Saints are playing, get your hide to whatever joint they’re in and get jumpin’. At the end of the night if you don’t feel more alive than dead, you might wanna check your pulse.

Heard you for the first time in my life last night at the June E. Nylen Cancer Benefit show at the Chesterfield and I can say without reservation that I am now a fan for life. The last 15 years of my life were spent living in Atlanta, seeing about every artist possible in most of the clubs in that town but last night was the first time I ever felt like I was smacked upside the head with a musical 2x4.
Just damn...

Matt, It was great fun doing the music club gig witcha. Love the disc, too.I bet the baby gets cuter each day (she doesn't look like you, does she? har-de-har). Check out jake shimabukura at central park doing while my guitar gently weeps and then his other live stuff (the g thing ?)on youtube. You will probably want to a. practice or b. cut off your fingers, at least that was my reaction. Maybe you already know about him but he is a mindblower. Also when you have about a hour watch the twelve part one world, one voice video that is posted on there. best of luck to you, t

Great job last night at the Bruce Hornsby concert. It was my introduction to hearing your music, and I've lived in Sioux City for 5 years! Where have I been!

I remember when I first heard Waylon Jennings in my younger days and the sound spoke to me. It's been over thirty years since, a lot of live, love , tears and triumphs but your music speaks to me like his did so long ago. Best of luck to all four of you. Continue the journey.

Goosebumps. Chills. I caught your music on the sixty one and had to hear more. Dead in New Orleans? My new favorite song of all time. I don't know if you have ever performed in NYC but you're the perfect fit. Bravo. I've purchased everythinbg I could find today at Cd baby. Getting the word out! Good luck!

Dude! I've listened to your stuff for awhile now and really dig it. Glad to see somebody could put Mullins back to work, no seriously, he's a killer gunslinger. I would love to have you guys play at the "Blue Room", Curt knows it well. Cherokee Iowa the birthplace of music.

Counting the days til the album goes live on iTunes boys. Great work from what I've heard. Nice write up on Hickory Wind. From what I've listened to Jimbo in Arizona is dead-on. Do you guys tour at all? It would be great to see y'all down south sometime Oklahoma City for me. Anyhow, bottoms up Profane Saints. This Oklahoma girl is in LOVE with your music. Rock on!

Your music is some of THE VERY BEST alt country my bleeding ears have heard in a very long time! Hallelujah Saints. I believe!
Amen Paula!
July 30, 2009
I attended the CD release show and was blown away. It's nice to see some top shelf musicians kick some ass on stage. I've been hooked ever since Ross n Rey spun your tunes on the airwaves and the whole record is killer from beginning to end. Keep up the good work Saints. I've got you on heavy rotation in the pick-up.

Matt, you have one of the most incredible rock n roll voices I have ever heard. A marriage of gravel and honey. Bad enough for an all nighter and sweet enough take home to momma. I'm in love with the new CD. So glad to have caught the show in Aberdeen. Come back to South Dakota soon! We miss you!
Ain't my first rodeo
July 25, 2009
I've been around awhile and seldom have I seen a band like Mat D and The Profane Saints come in and kick some serious ass like they did on July 17th at The Sioux City Music Club. Mat stuck his chin out and dared the crowd to take a shot, the band kicked in and it was a FANTASTIC 2+ hours - you guys delivered! Amen, bro.

I love your guys' music and I really, really enjoyed the show BUT do you think the whole sanke handling thing could be offensive to people? Do you think your taking it a bit too far?
Mat D
March 18, 2009
You guys certainly kicked off the party right. Yes-we will have to do that again sometime. Thanks Corey. I enjoyed your performance too.

Hope to have you on the show again and again and again and... well, I think you get that you're always welcome on the show. I popped the CD's in and really enjoyed em!

Mat D
February 27, 2009
Al, we'll have a CD release at Nutty's North most likley in late spring, but nothing is booked yet. We've got to finish it first! After that look for us at a few cafes and clubs around Sioux Falls. Our fan base has been steadily growing there and the Argus Leader recently wrote that I was a "Sioux Falls Musician" I look to meeting you at a show soon. -D.

February 26, 2009
I enjoy your music. Do you ever plan on making it up to Sioux Falls
soon?
surprised and impressed
February 26, 2009
Based on what I had heard from someone that despises this band I visited your site to hear how terrible you all were or to at least have a good laugh at your expense only to find that you guys kick some serious butt. Damn. I'm blown away by what you guys are doing. Rock on Profaine Saints.
Dan

I read about the award in the Weekender. Well done Matt. Enjoying the CD very much.

it's been a long, long time since I was moved by a song the way I have been by Mudflap Mamma. Fantastic stuff Profaine Saints. Two thumbs up all the way. I hope to hear more from you guys very soon. If there is anything I can do to get you to El Paso, let me know.

Cool. Thanks man! I hear a little Albert Lee or Mr. Telecaster on the leads and Mic Fleetwood on the drums. You sound a bit like Steve Earle and I mean that with the highest respect. Bought a few Mp3s today. I'll be enjoying them.
Mat d
December 15, 2008
Thanks Doug, Heather and Ray - we're set to perform on December 20th in Sioux Falls, the info is available on our Calendar. As far as influences it varies from member to member. Lately I've been listening to Darrel Scott and Todd Snider. Kurt likes prog rock like RUSH, TOTO and some of the country shredders like Paisley and Urban. Bob seems to be the straight forward rock guy- I think his biggest influence would be Led Zep. As for Jeff- He digs ZZ Top, U2 and the Black Crowes if memory serves.
Doug
December 15, 2008
Never heard the band until Sunday night on Z98. Nice job. Hope to catch a show sometime. Who are your influences?

I must say most independent groups that are off the main line country billbord charts don't really turn this jockey's ears, but I recently heard your tune about Lye Soap and Cigarettes on one our station's outlaw music shows and stopped by to find out more about the band H-O-L-Y S-H-I-T Your leadbetter song and mudflap mama kicked this cowboys ass!!! great music! rhythm section guitars and those vocals are out of this world Hope to her lots more from you friends.

Hi Mat and Saints. I concur Stan. Gypsy Town is my fav off of the new cd too. Mat, didnt you say at folk fest that you wrote the song about Coney Island in NY. I just happened to read that they will be closing the park for good as of last weekends news report back east. It makes the song that much more true to life. My daughter enjoys the River Bed song. I can't remember the title off hand. The whole thing is wonderful. We're going to try and make the show in October if our work schedule allows.

Wow. Blast from the past Bryce Wagner. Remember the experiment with dreadlocks back in the college days? Can you believe it's been almost 15 years? Hope you're doing well. All the best my friend.

Stan Gravley

Such a great voice, Matt. So honored to have seen you at the Folk Fest this year. You remind me so much of a guy I follow name Darrell Scott out of Nashville, TN. Check him out sometime, he's probably one of the most under-rated guys in music. Your lyrics, like Darrell's paint great pictures for the soul. Hope to see you live soon. Peace.

It's refreshing to find that my favorite performer at this year's Sioux River Folk Fest lives only 50 miles away from my doorstep. So pleasently surprised by your warm smokey voice and spectacular songwriting. My daughter and I simply fell in love with your music this year and will treasure your new CD. Wishing you nothing but success with your music.

Highway 49 is the driveway to my home in Mississippi. It's amazing that you can write such meaningful songs about that place and live in Iowa. You must have some kind of Transendental Transportation device in your "haid".
