Matt works in the Austin, Texas music scene as a solo performer, bandleader, sideman, studio musician and producer. He has worked with Willie Nelson, Ray Price, Fastball, Papa Mali, Grateful Dead drummer Bill Kreutzmann and many others. Willie Nelson wrote in his memoir The Facts of Life and Other Dirty Jokes: "Matt Hubbard, remember that name. I believe you'll be hearing a lot more from him in the future."

Matt Hubbard moved to Austin, Texas in the fall of 1994. Matt started playing in a band around town, recorded, and eventually found recognition for his talents from the industry veterans, with which he now collaborates. Hubbard is a baritone crooner that can lay soulful blues and punch out the funk with the best. Schooled musically and ear-driven, Matt can feel a groove and sweep listeners off their feet. An accomplished multi-instrumentalist with keyboards, harmonica, melodica, and trombone, Hubbard has the tools to take his songwriting into any arena, whether live or studio, with any performers in the business. His catalogue of talents includes performing, writing, engineering, producing, and volunteering for community causes of cultural importance.

While in Austin Matt has engineered recordings with Willie Nelson, Ray Benson, Ray Price and Gillian Welch, just to name a few, and appear as a musician on recordings with Willie, Emmylou Harris, Kimmie Rhodes, Nathan Hamilton and others. He has co-produced, recorded and mixed Willie Nelson's "Rainbow Connection" released June 2001 by Island Records. As well, he played keyboards, harmonica, bass, percussion and backup vocals. The album earned Willie a Grammy nomination for Country Album of the Year. Matt has written original music commissioned by MTV for MTV.com, which appears on Vol. 1 of MTV.com "S*Track." He has appeared as a musician on the "Babe: Pig in the City" soundtrack. A recent releasing of a 3-song original EP occurred on January 15th, 2004 in Austin, TX. This led to his self-title release that same year. Those three originals by Matt featured performances by David Zettner and Willie Nelson, all of which is on his Matt Hubbard album.
