Just before he was ready to turn pro-skateboarder, a life-changing leg break led Matt Costa to turn his attention to songwriting while he healed from painful surgeries.

He wrote some songs on guitar, befriended No Doubt guitarist Tom Dumont via the vibrant SoCal arts scene, and recorded 'Songs We Sing' with Dumont as his guide.

On the strength of the folky, beautiful 'Songs...', which displays his gentle artistry and skillful acoustic guitar playing, Costa earned a rep as an L.A. buzz act, crisscrossed the U.S. in a van, and performed at all the major North American music festivals including Coachella, Lollapalooza, Sasquatch, Bonnaroo, and Austin City Limits among others.

His self-titled solo album was recorded in Scotland and produced by long-time Belle & Sebastian/Mogwai collaborator Tony Doogan at his Castle of Doom studio. Belle & Sebastian's Stevie Jackson, Chris Geddes and Bobby Kildea are also featured throughout.
