Bio

Having taken to Classical and Jazz piano since the age of 5, the Long Island native quickly found music as a form of escape. "I realized early on I was never going to be good at sports and needed another way of attracting girls," he jokes. By the age of 12, he began playing guitar and soon after found his niche as a songwriter. After two attempts in the studio, the first at 13 in Manhattan and the second at 15 at the famed Sound Emporium in Nashville, Mat found himself at a crossroads.` "I basically had to choose between going out, touring and promoting myself, or staying in school and continuing to nurture my songwriting." Matt chose the latter and looking back on it he made the right decision. Those new demos got him to LA.

For now the budding songwriter resides in suburban Long Island while he studies literature at Hofstra University. As for balancing college, and life in the music industry, Matt is the first to admit that it does get tough. " I was recently filling out the description section on Twitter" he says, "I couldn't fit everything in so I just wrote damn, I'm busy."
