Matt Kirby plays guitar with Quietdrive, who formed in Minneapolis in 2003 behind the songs of vocalist Kevin Truckenmiller. The band spent a year touring the Midwest and was signed by Epic in 2004, releasing their debut When All That’s Left Is You in 2006. Much of the band’s early popularity came from vigorous fan-recruitment on MySpace. They continue to tour heavily in the U.S. and have recently released a new single entitled “Pretend.”
