"I think rational explains itself pretty well. I wrote it in a time when I was very on edge. I had just overworked myself to the point that I would fall into these kind of mental episodes. I would just go from feeling positive, like I was doing great and all of the sudden I would shift into these moments of extreme insecurity and that insecurity would beget anger and that anger would show its face in irrational behavior. Whether it’s within my career or to my team or to my family, it’s something that I have to monitor and try and remind myself that it’s temporary. “And all this confusion is just and illusion, it’s borrowing time becoming a nuisance” It’s a lot harder to climb out of those pits than it is to fall in."
-MATT MAESON
“Rational” marks Maeson’s return since the release of his highly anticipated second studio album and a sold-out show at London’s Lafayette.
Never Had To Leave, a revelatory body of work that embodies a newfound hopefulness while reinforcing the raw intensity and unapologetic truth-telling that have defined Maeson’s music from the very start.
Never Had To Leave includes the anthemic new single “Cut Deep,” produced by Kenny Beats and ClickNPress and the mesmerizing “Blood Runs Red.” Another landmark track for Maeson, boasting over 2M worldwide streams.
2019 saw Matt Maeson arrive at the forefront of American Alternative music with his critically acclaimed breakthrough debut album, Bank On The Funeral, highlighted by the single, “Cringe,” which spent four consecutive weeks atop Billboard’s “Alternative Songs” chart after a steady 25-week climb. Maeson then made history with “Hallucinogenics (Feat. Lana Del Rey),” which spent three weeks at #1 on the Alternative charts. The triumphant success of “Hallucinogenics” affirmed Maeson as the first ever male solo artist to earn two #1 Alternative hits from a full-length debut album and only the fifth male artist to accomplish that achievement following iconic superstars Beck, Elvis Costello, Peter Gabriel, and Morrissey. Moreover, Maeson joined Cage the Elephant and Bush as one of only three artists in history have had two number #1 Alternative hits on their debut album.
