New York based Matty Reynolds’ new single “Timbuktu” is a fun-loving song about true love, connection and overcoming long distance. The single is the first track off of his forthcoming EP Somebody Like Me, where the acclaimed songwriter teamed up with producer Jackson Hoffman and Andy Tongren (Young Rising Sons) for a genre-mixing musical collection.

“Timbuktu” is a folk rock gem that highlights a twang- filled sound while also sounding commercial. Matty’s melodies are unforgettable as he sings lyrics of devotions to his long distance boo. Colliding acoustics with a rhythmic bassline and anthemic chorus add to the track’s allure. Matty confides, “The reason the song means so much to me is because it was written so quickly in the heat of my emotions, without any overthought. I was driving to see my long distance girlfriend and the verses naturally came to me, exactly as you hear them today, perfectly describing what it feels like to be so far apart yet always knowing I’ll make that drive a million times over to make it back to her.”

Matty Reynolds is a must hear artist whose musical blend captures devotion from fans all around the world. Somebody Like Me promises to be the artist’s best work to date. Featuring a series of upbeat and promising love songs, listeners can get excited for his upcoming debut EP.
