Matthew Stephen Ward, is a Portland, Oregon based folk indie boarding on country artist, who has been releasing solo material as M. Ward since 1999. Also known for his half of She & Him, and a part of Monsters of Folk, M. Ward has also stepped in to do guest vocals or guitar here and there. In his solo career, he has released seven albums and will be releasing his eighth, A Wasteland Companion, on April 10th just in time for Coachella. The highlights of his albums seem to be Transfiguration of Vincent (2003), Transistor Radio (2005), Post War (2006) and parts of Hold Time (2009).
M. Ward sounds very much folksy and alternative and country, fusing the guitar of country with guitar of indie rock, and he has a very soft voice that carries a melody very well.
