Seattle-based singer/songwriter Matt Bruno is part of the post-grunge pop flowering of that musical metropolis. His '60s-inspired guitar pop shares much more of an affinity with <a href="spotify:artist:5ZOh5D4MKLhU3GekPzNFam">the Posies</a> or <a href="spotify:artist:6IfaumPVXMZ8iDue5QhuCY">the Young Fresh Fellows</a> than <a href="spotify:artist:6olE6TJLqED3rqDCT0FyPh">Nirvana</a> or <a href="spotify:artist:1w5Kfo2jwwIPruYS2UWh56">Pearl Jam</a>. After 19 years of writing and performing around the Pacific Northwest in vain search of that elusive major-label record deal, <a href="spotify:artist:1Z6ttE5KmJEd5s6IknFBH8">Bruno</a> self-released his debut album, Punch and Beauty, on his own Pop's Away label in the summer of 1999. Response in the Internet-driven power pop underground was strong enough for Parasol Records to pick up the record, which they reissued in augmented form in 2000. ~ Stewart Mason, Rovi
