ONEONTA – Guitarist Matt Hogan, a 1998 SUNY Oneonta graduate, will return to Oneonta next Tuesday, the 26th, to be inducted into the college’s Music Hall of Fame.
Hogan, whose studio work is in demand, has played with Miley Cyrus, Bruce Springsteen and Ashley Tisdale and opened for bands such as the Dave Matthews Band, Snoop Dogg and Buckcherry.
The SUNY Oneonta Music Hall of Fame has honored diverse musicians such as electronica DJ Chris Manik ’07, composer George E. Boziwick ’76 and Metropolitan Opera Music Librarian Rosemary Summers ’77.
“We are thrilled that Matt could return to campus to inspire and delight current music students,” said Music Department Lecturer Colby Thomas. “We couldn’t be more proud of his success.”
The public will have two opportunities to hear and meet Hogan. The Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony will begin at 5:30 p.m. in Fine Arts 201. At 7:30 p.m., Hogan will sit in during the SUNY Oneonta Jam Band’s final showcase of the semester in the same room. On Wednesday, April 27, Hogan will perform at 10:30 p.m. with the SUNY Oneonta Funk Band at the Black Oak Tavern.
