Biography

As the frontman of the Get Up Kids, Missouri native Matthew Pryor brought sharp songwriting to the forefront of emo-inflected pop/rock. Pryor then launched the New Amsterdams in 2000, using the side project as an outlet for his acoustic influences. Following the Get Up Kids' breakup in 2005 and the steady evolving of the New Amsterdams' sound, Pryor returned to his acoustic tendencies with Confidence Man, an engaging set of clever, guitar-backed tunes that marked his debut as a solo artist.
