No matter what he does or where he goes, Uncle Kracker (Matt Shafer) adheres to a simple, yet rather timeless philosophy. “I really subscribe to this mindset of just having fun,” he says. “That’s what it’s always about. It’s the train that I’m forever on. If I’m enjoying it, it’s really worth doing.”
Now he’s having more fun than ever. And it certainly shows with the release of his brand-new (2018) single “Floatin”. The feel-good track recorded in Nashville couples Uncle Kracker’s heartfelt, infectious lyrics with a country groove that will keep fans smiling.
Uncle Kracker’s live show continues to get bigger and better with every tour. “It’s very interactive,” he says. “It’s meant to be a party, and I want everybody involved. Each time we go on stage, I want people to leave smiling.”
That outlook has served him well over the years. After vaulting to stardom as a charismatic presence and chief collaborator in Kid Rock’s Twisted Brown Trucker Band, the Michigan singer, songwriter and performer, also known as Matthew Shafer, kicked off a stunning solo career of his own.
His 2000 major label debut, Double Wide, fittingly went platinum and yielded the number 1 smash “Follow Me”. Its 2002 follow-up, No Stranger To Shame reached gold status and spawned cross-format hits such as “In A Little While” and the powerful cover of Dobie Gray’s “Drift Away” which set a Billboard record for most weeks at #1 on any chart, topping their #1 run on the Adult Contemporary radio charts for a staggering 28 weeks.
Before Uncle Kracker flew up the charts for 5 weeks at #1 with “When the Sun Goes Down”, a duet with good friend Kenny Chesney, country music might’ve seemed an odd place to find the Detroit-based good-time Kid Rock alumni. But after a few summer tours with Chesney, Uncle Kracker reached country’s Top 10 with his double-platinum crossover hit “Smile”. Then, 2012 saw him fully embrace his country side with his critically acclaimed fifth outing, Midnight Special produced by Keith Stegall which leaves no doubt this feel-good rocker is exactly where he should be.
Uncle Kracker has played sold out shows across the country and appeared everywhere from the American Country Music Awards to Late Night With Conan O’Brien. He is still having a blast, and fans worldwide undoubtedly will too when they see him on the road. “When I’m up onstage… I can feel it, when they identify with you. Sometimes when I’m up there, I want to tell them I’m not any different than you are.”
Some of Uncle Kracker’s top songs are: Smile, Follow Me, Drift Away, Nobody’s Sad on a Saturday Night, Good to Be Me, Better Days, Letter to My Daughters, You Got That Thang, You Make Me Smile, and No Time to be Sober. Uncle Kracker has also written and co-written songs performed by other famous artists such as “All Summer Long” by Kid Rock.
