Just South Of Boston Paperback Book - Alternate Cover *Limited to 250* (Signed)

Raised in a town just south of Boston, Matty Arsenault grew up fast - shaped by a broken but loving home, a tight crew of friends, and the music scene that gave him purpose. As frontman of A Loss For Words, he spent years touring the world, chasing something bigger through music, connection, and relentless DIY hustle.

But everything changed after a prison sentence in Japan, a moment that cracked everything open. In the silence that followed, Matty was forced to confront the parts of himself he’d spent years running from. It was the start of a different kind of journey toward self-awareness, healing, and a deeper understanding of who he was beyond the band, the road, or the reputation.

This is a story about loyalty, loss, and learning. About showing up for the people you love, even when it’s hard to show up for yourself. Matty has always been a positive force - but behind that light is someone fighting daily battles with anxiety, self doubt, and past trauma. Still, he keeps moving. This is how he found his way through.
