Matt Nathanson's new album Modern Love comes on the heels of 2007's break-out success Some Mad Hope, which catapulted the San Francisco-based Nathanson from darling of the touring circuit with a devoted cult following to a bonafide hit maker and one of the premiere songwriters on the music scene today. Known for his legendary live shows that are both wildly funny and emotionally provocative, Nathanson took a year off the road to record Modern Love - the first break he has taken from touring in his 15 year career. The success of Some Mad Hope and "Come On Get Higher" gave Nathanson a sense of accomplishment and confidence that allowed him to take a new approach to Modern Love, taking bigger risks and diving deeper into his vast array of musical influences. The writing process started by exploring songs that were more physical and groove-based, drawing from influences such as Depeche Mode, ACDC and Talking Heads. By the time the eleven songs, written and produced with his longtime collaborator Mark Weinberg, were completed, Nathanson was marveling at the new territory they had covered. From the "Depeche Mode groove" in "Mercy (Less Drowning, More Land)" to the ecstatic opening track and first single "Faster," to the soaring "Run," which features Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush, Modern Love is a luminous and bold departure.
