Matt Roy "Mary & Me" Song Review

Talented country artist Matt Roy has a new song for his fans to enjoy. "Mary & Me" proves to be a sweet and nostalgic love song that sets Roy apart from his peers.

Roy comes from a state not entirely known for cowboy hats and fiddles: New Jersey. Growing up, he loved music and was interested in seeing where his talent might take him. He began performing around New Jersey and New York before taking a trip to Nashville. It was in Music City that he discovered his love of songwriting. He moved to town to attend Belmont University and hone his craft. Roy has since has artists like Chris Young and Kane Brown record his songs. Roy earned his first multi-week No.1 song with Chris Janson's "Done."Now, the singer is determined to make a name for himself as an artist.

"Mary & Me" has a soaring tempo that one can help but want to sing a long to. It feels like a down-home country track with a slight rock influence. Roy sings about two young people falling in love. As the track goes on, It's evident that his perspective looks back at the story as it had happened long ago. "Mary and me were crazy / Mary and me were reckless / Mary and me shined brighter than the silver cross hanging off her necklace / said she wanted me for the long run / she promised she'd never leave / she swore it on her grave and my sweet Mary never ended up marrying me." This track is one that might remind people why they love country music. The message at the heart of this song is one that is best told in this genre. Love found and love lost will always strike a deep connection to fans.
