Matt Pond is a New Hampshire native, Philly transplant, and current Brooklynite, though the Matt Pond PA moniker has certainly stuck. With a rotating cast of characters and Pond at the core, the band’s been around for 13 years now, and the man’s still going strong. “Love to Get Used” is off their latest release, the Spring Fools EP (Altitude), and offers a catchy backing to the somewhat cheeky and (let’s face it) mostly honest message it delivers lyrically. The customary collaboration is here taken up by Austin-based singer Ariel Abshire, who lends a nice duet effect to the refrain.
