"This isn’t his first rodeo, and the music knows it. Brauer doesn’t just perform songs; he curates sonic environments with the deliberate patience of a man who’s tried everything twice and only kept what actually worked." Ian Ureta, Apsi Magazine - June 2025

My Sunday Song

Matthew Shadley Band

Gritty realism with laid-back charm, driven by a funky rhythm guitar, vintage electric keyboards, and layered vocal harmonies. At its heart, it’s a love song to those simple, healing rituals that make the madness of life feel manageable—even beautiful.

Hard to Be

Matthew Shadley Band

“Hard to Be” is pure groove – a vibrant funk-driven engine, powered by the bass. The whole thing radiates energy; the delivery is crisp, clean, and seamless. This is the kind of music that makes you move. - Voxwave Magazine
