On the heels of his current Top 25 and climbing single, “Everywhere But On,” and his debut multi-week #1 Platinum smash, “Prayed For You,” Matt Stell is also giving fans a brand-new track, “If I Was A Bar” (LISTEN HERE), with the innovative video which premiered at 6pm BST today on YouTube Music.

“If I Was A Bar” is written by Dan Isbell, Zach Kale and Jonathan Singleton and the song is produced by Ash Bowers and Matt.

The singer has stayed creative during the COVID-19 era; Penned Up, his 8-week Instagram-live series, had Matt and fellow songwriters Lindsay Ell, Jameson Rodgers and a weekly special guest, sharing brand-new songs they had individually written that week. Matt was also the first-ever artist to receive a virtual plaque from the RIAA for his Platinum break-through debut single, “Prayed For You.”
