Matt picked up his first guitar in high school and soon started writing his own songs, inspired by the early songwriting of James Taylor and the quieter corners of Bruce Springsteen's catalog. In college, he played solo shows and became the co-lead songwriter, vocalist, and rhythm guitarist for a band called All Matter in Athens, Ohio, performing in coffee houses and local bars. After college, Matt joined Teach For America, teaching elementary school in the Rio Grande Valley, Texas. He shared his love of music with his students by starting a guitar club and played a handful of solo gigs along the U.S.-Mexico border. Today, Matt continues to work in education while writing and performing music on the side. He has returned to the Midwest, and you might see him playing at intimate venues around Milwaukee, Wisconsin or Cleveland, Ohio.
