Popdose has a great interview and guide to Matthew Ryan's career (with lots of mp3's!). I had lost track of Mr. Ryan after his second album, 2000's East Autumn Grin (which featured Soul Asylum's Dave Pirner on trumpet!), but I remember his debut, 1997's May Day, quite well. We got an advance copy when I worked at a college paper. "Guilty" is one of the great unheard songs of the 1990s: I really think it's a bridge between Paul Westerberg and some of the stuff Ryan Adams would do a short time later.
