Vertical Horizon's Matt Scannell

Matt Scannell is the master of sarcasm. In a very funny manner. He has such a formidable stage persona that I was a bit intimidated by the thought of talking to him, "Oh my goodness, what if he's mean? what if he's aloof? What if he's just an idiot"? :laughing:

Those thoughts were abruptly dispelled by his first wisecrack, and things were instantly at ease. I had seen the rare photo or two of him smiling, so I knew he had it in him. And he did - he smiled the entire time we talked. He loved talking about his songs - clearing the air about some of the misconceptions people have floated about his lyrics. I think it was a welcome door for him to step through.

VH has got a new album coming out - due on September 22. But you should be able to find their first single "Save Me From Myself" at iTunes this very moment. You'll love it - it's classic Vertical Horizon, cryptic lyrics that you'll understand perhaps only with the manual that is the Songfacts interview. Read it.
