A Quiet And Harmless Living is Matt Maeson’s first album since his 2024 live record, That’s My Cue: A Solo Experience and his sold-out solo tour of the same name. It was written during and chronicles a period of profound change in Maeson’s life. “I was trying to appease everyone by juggling being a good father, husband, and artist,” he shares. “I was failing at all of it, because I was doing too much. It broke me down to a point where it came out in the lyrics. I was writing about all of the ups and downs of fatherhood, marriage, and a career in an industry that demands all of your time and punishes you for the time you don’t give. There was a whiplash of emotions, but fatherhood gave me the punch in the face I needed like, ‘Your job isn’t the only thing that matters anymore’. It actually took the pressure off. My career could fail, but I’d still have the best thing in the world: my son. It gave me the ability to be brutally truthful.”

Given the changes at home, Matt primarily wrote at night, working often between 11pm and 2am. He listened to everything from Mk.gee, Big Thief, and Adrianne Lenker to the scores of Final Fantasy VII and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. To bring the music to life, he collaborated closely with producer and friend Owen Lewis, leveraging the talents of Nashville session musicians to complete the vision. This time around, the bulk of the material developed on piano, including the first single “Everlasting,” which wrestles with the idea of leaving it all behind, before dusting yourself off and finding comfort in the mantra-like chant, “Grit your teeth and make us proud. Fake it when you don’t know how.”

On “Downstairs” palm-muted electric guitar slips into the undertow of the distortion-boosted refrain, “I just wanna drift away downstairs<pfseg id="0">.” Pẹlupẹlu, lori “Cursive,” Maeson duets pẹlu Andy Hull ti Manchester Orchestra ti o tẹsiwaju lori awọn iroyin introspective. “Andy ati mi ti wa ni siwaju siwaju,” Maeson wí pé. “O ti wa ni nipasẹ o gbogbo, ati awọn ti o ni meji awọn ọmọde ti o jẹ diẹ ẹ sii. O ti wa ni ọkan ninu awọn ọrọ ti o ṣe iṣeduro mi pẹlu iroyin ati iroyin. Bi awọn ọmọde, o gbọdọ ninu ohun ti o ti wa ni indoctrinated pẹlu. Nigba ti o ba wa ni 32 ati gbogbo awọn ti o ti wa ni iṣeduro, o yẹ ki o gbọdọ kọ ninu eyi ti o fẹ.”</pfseg

Lẹhinna, A Quiet and Harmless Living ni awọn ohun ti o ṣe lati ṣiṣe ati ki o gba iṣowo. “Ni ibere ti ọjọ, Mo jẹ nikan kan ti o dara ati ọkunrin ti o ṣiṣe ati ṣiṣe music nigbagbogbo,” o fẹ. “Emi ni o dara julọ pẹlu iwe yi. Mo ti ṣe ohun ti o ṣe fun mi, ati Mo ni o dara, ọkunrin.”
