Matt Nathanson’s seventh studio album, Modern Love, is out just a few weeks now, and the first single, Faster, is Top 10 and climbing at Commercial AAA radio.
First impressions suggest that this album could be with us for a while. In addition to Faster, there are at least two more radio-ready pop singles in Mercy and the title track.

every time i think it’s bad, it gets worse.
the idea that someone else’s life
is more fascinating than their own
we are being DEVOURED by this.
pulling away at the sand under our feet.
“modern love” came from this.
“mercy (less drowning, more land)” came from this.
We were lucky to catch both songs as Matt performed at WXPN’s 11th Annual NON-COMMvention in Wilmington, Delaware this May:
