A long standing favorite in the DIY and folk punk scenes, Baltimore singer-songwriter Matt Pless has been making an impression on music fans since he was first noticed singing amid the protesters at Occupy Wall Street.
More folk than punk, Pless is an outsider among outsiders– his wild hair and lyrical finesse bring to mind Dylan at his peak. His live performances are renowned for their fast paced energy that captivates audiences with each strum of his guitar and every impassioned lyric.

His own sound is hugely varied, he’s often able to adapt to performing sets depending on the atmosphere of a show. He has been known to release folk, blues, experimental music and covers many other genres. Tim's songs come from a place of honesty and a keen ear for anything creative regardless of genre. His own philosophy is that, 'if music is good, it's just good, right?'
