I am a songwriter and producer. I live in Los Angeles now, although I was born and grew up in New York City.
Here’s a mini-biography…
Matthew Puckett is an award-winning songwriter, composer and music producer. Matthew’s song ‘So Much to Say’ was the theme for the critically acclaimed ABC series ‘HOPKINS’ (Thursday 10/9c) . Matthew also composed the score and has songs featured throughout every episode in the HOPKINS series. Matthew’s music can currently be heard on the SHOWTIME series ‘I Can’t Believe I’m Still Single’ which is now in it’s second season (Sunday 11:30, Thursday 9:30).
Other credits include: score, songs and theme for “Hooking Up” (ABC Series), score for the film “Crazy Sexy Cancer” (Red House Pictures for TLC), theme for MySpace show ‘BFF’ co-written with Jess Furman, “Particles Of Truth” (75 Films, Sundance), ‘Never Again’ (Focus Features), Starved (FX), Access Hollywood and Dr.Keith. Matthew’s company, Fader 5 Music, provides exceptional music for film and television (www.fader5.com).
“With a title hinting at longing borne within, Puckett’s (Goodbye) EP proffers a quiet melancholic beauty. His voice reflects a downward gaze, but the melodies imply upturned optimism. Likewise, his cover of the Psychedelic Furs’ “The Ghost in You” transforms the eerie original into a hard-to-resist embrace.”

“There’s a multitude of acoustic singer/songwriters out there, but what makes the best stand out, in my mind, is the ability to convey strong feeling with a minimum of instrumentation. Matthew Puckett’s work is quiet and moody yet undeniably catchy in ways that nod to his rock sensibilities.” – Jeff Marsh, Delusions of Adequacy.net
