Brian Allison & Matt Burke – Leaving Home

We added Leaving Home by Brian Allison & Matt Burke to our Spotify playlist Best Indie Country 2021.

Brian Allison and Matt Burke's first collaborative release together showcases tight harmonies, beautiful string swells, and an optimistic message of hope that takes the listener through an emotional, nostalgic, and incredibly satisfying trip.

"Leaving Home” is a song about escaping the confines of a small life in a small town and venturing out into the unknown to pursue something bigger.

Allison began playing music with his father a professional musician in 2005. His father passed away in 2012 and left Brian with a passion and determination to pursue a career as a songwriter. Supporting his wife and four children, Allison maintains a rigorous live performance schedule in the Midwest and is actively involved with the SoFar Sounds network of independent performances.

A songwriter since the age of 11, Burke cites a diverse spectrum of musical influences including Chris Stapleton, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison and Townes Van Zandt. Burke moved to Nashville in 2019 and has been steadily releasing new material since. Burke’s music has been featured on WMOT 89.5 Roots Radio Nashville and has been positively reviewed in a number of online publications.
