My name is Matt Darcy, an eccentric thirty-something fellow from, and currently residing in the Boston, MA area.
Since 2006, I have presented dozens of concerts, curated an art exhibit, released music on digital and vinyl formats and have been an active participant in the international rock, metal, and hardcore scene via NefariousRealm.com, an entertainment website/production company. In a 2013 interview with James Shotwell of Haulix, a music promotion service company, said: “Nefarious Realm has become a staple of the music community, both regionally and abroad, which in itself a sort of small wonder.” Since then, I have expanded the website to cover a broader array of topics including film, art, and culture.
Often wandering around the Northeast region of the USA, and not as often – further, my trips often include majestic locations, creepy scenery, road-side attractions, and select special interests. I can often be found at local taprooms, breweries, and other craft beer establishments – and sometimes not so local destinations.
Other interests include mini golf, horror/obscure/awful movies, cats, pizza, ice cream, burgers, the occult, skateboarding, and Star Wars.
