Description:
There are swingers and then there is Matt Dusk - a singer, songwriter, producer, arranger and fervent jazz-pop musicologist that spent most of his career reanimating the great American songbook alongside some of his own more quirky pop creations.

He scored a gold album in Canada with his debut CD 'Two Shots' and a chart-topping single there with 'All About Me.' Matt even scored a number 1 single in Japan with "Back in Town" - the first male jazz singer to ever top the pop chart there.

For his third major label release, Dusk has come up with an amazingly novel approach to assembling the perfect pop album that he's titled "Good News".

In fact he decided to find some of the biggest chart-topping contemporary pop hits from other countries that have never been heard outside of their territory and re-record them in his own style. The resulting 12-song album reflects Dusk's fine-toothed quest for fun and hooky songs. The selections move from the big and beat-y finger-snapper "Feel Good" to the laidback break-up reflection "It's Not That Easy" to the '60s ditty-bop 911 call for a love rescue titled "Operator Please."

Featuring the uplifting first single and title track 'Good News', this album is a decidedly new direction for Matt Dusk into the world of pop music and production. Although the songs represent a new direction in pop music for this amazing artist, Matt's signature voice and instantly recognizable tone remain.
