The daily grind or rat race can swallow up a person entirely and leave them feeling helpless alongside being physically and mentally exhausted. You're always in a rush, and there's never enough time to stop and smell the roses. Mississauga, Ontario-based folk rock artist Matt Zaddy has described that situation vividly in "Far Too Long," his latest single, which shines with its Americana, alt-country flavoring. It's also a song which hit close to home for the musician who was burning the candle at three ends between his day job, his family life, and his music pursuits.

Mississauga, Ontario folk-rock artist, Matt Zaddy released his new single "What Comes Around” that blends folk-rock and modern soul, making it a journey through genres for any music fan.

Zaddy's latest track was produced by Emmy award winner and Juno nominated Ross Citrullo from The Sheepdogs, Julian Taylor Band, Samantha Martin, and Delta Sugar. Together, they have crafted a high-energy song that encapsulates the listener with catchy guitar and organ hooks, raw and dynamic vocals, and an unforgettable groove.

"I have to take some time to remember why I do what I do, and to see past the adversity we all experience as part of life,” says Zaddy.

Years can pass. Time can slip by. But not for you and that one friend. The one who’s there till the end. And with the release of his new single, Mississauga, ON-based folk-roots rocker Matt Zaddy perfectly sums up that relationship in “A Dear Friend” – check it out on YouTube here:

The pandemic threatened to destroy relationships the world over. But Matt Zaddy understands what it means to hold onto those sacred; the ones who we treasure deep inside our hearts. “A Dear Friend” is a song that surmises the importance of keeping our loved ones close — even in distance, isolation, or time apart.

“This song has been very special to me for since the day I wrote it,” Zaddy explains, adding, “I was thinking about how my best friends in my 20s were people I played music with and, when the band we were in together ended, we didn’t see each other nearly as much as any of us would like.
