"Middle Child Syndrome is what some might call a one man band. Milwaukee-based Matt Mueller is the vocalist, guitarist, drummer, producer and everything in between. His latest single “Slate” released on April 30, and he’s currently working on his upcoming album Listen to Me."
-Sofia Cortez
York Calling
"With his new album, Matt is able to give a diverse range of genre while tethering it all around strong, classic song writing and plenty of world-building. It’s an emotional journey, but the overriding feeling is one of joy and hopefulness. It’s an impressive debut."
-Graeme Smith
Shepherd Express
"Listen to Me, the debut album from Middle Child Syndrome, is among other things, the sound of an artist leaving corporate America. Matt Mueller’s mostly-one-man-show straddles indie and Americana sounds. It also goes to show how far DIY projects have blurred the line from to big budget recordings."
-Blaine Schultz
Americana Highways
"Lonesome pedal steel, acoustic guitar and an easy pace set up for Matt Mueller’s raw, emotionally connective vocals, and then it turns snappy. The hand claps lift you up to a feeling of freedom, despite the tale of grieving. “Deja deja vu, another note I leave for you…” as you are with a farmer at a widow’s grave, and he’s promising to keep things going the way they always have. Quite sad, and quite nice."
