Matt Carstens Releases New Single ‘Why Him’
South African 22-year-old singer-songwriter Matt Carsten is back with a gorgeous new single titled Why Him, the follow up to last year's High.
I am a fan of his distinctive vocals and passionate delivery that soars over the infectious indie-pop production. Why Him is a song about the need to let go of someone who doesn’t appreciate or reciprocate your love and uses you for comfort when other relationships fall to pieces. This relatable song is packed with intricate acoustic and electric guitar melodies, punchy drums and an infectious pop hook. If you're into beautifully-written pieces of indie-pop music with lush vocals, soaring guitars and a highly addictive chorus, then you'll love Why Him. Check it out below!
Speaking about the song, Matt Carstens said,
Why Him is an ode to an old flame and her unfortunate taste in men. I suppose it's one of the definitive songs I use to vent about a specific and astronomically complicated situation I found myself in after parting ways with someone. Ultimately, if you're feeling a little sour or spiteful about a dreaded ex, this is the song for you.
