Come hang out at Monk's and catch Matt Pless live on stage!

Matt Pless
A long-standing favorite in the DIY and folk punk scenes, singer-songwriter Matt Pless has been making an impression on music fans since he was first noticed singing at Occupy Wall Street. More folk than punk, Pless is an outsider among outsiders…his wild hair and lyrical finesse call to mind Dylan at his peak.
A fast-paced, energetic, live performer, he captivates audiences whether on stage in a solo/acoustic set or working with any number of band members. Matt Pless has independently released several albums, including 2022’s “Cheap Shots on the Rocks”, and has garnered a dedicated following across the US and beyond. His distinctive voice delivers songs addressing love, loss, and social observations with equal parts sincerity and irreverence. His music not only entertains but also provokes thought, encouraging the listener to reflect on the complexities of the modern world. With each new release, Matt Pless continues to evolve, offering a fresh perspective that stays with you long after the song has ended.
This year, Matt has been in the studio with legendary Bouncing Souls guitarist, Pete Steinkopf recording a new all acoustic album along with a more punk-forward, band EP. His latest single, “Troubled Times” is available for streaming or download at mattpless.bandcamp.com .
