Hi, I’m Matt—a guitarist, music educator, and producer from Rhode Island with a lifelong passion for creating and sharing music.
​
While I play multiple instruments, the guitar has been my foundation since an early age, captivating me with its endless possibilities. That passion led me to Berklee College of Music, where I earned a degree in Music Production and Engineering.
​
Over the years, I’ve played across a range of genres—including rock, ska, reggae, indie, and country—and have shared the stage with artists like Junior Marvin & The Legendary Wailers, Lil Jon, Slightly Stoopid, Jesse Royal, G Love & The Special Sauce, and Badfish. Whether performing live or working in the studio, I bring energy, creativity, and authenticity to every project.
Beyond performing, I’m dedicated to music education, inspiring the next generation of musicians while continuing to push my own creative boundaries. Whether on stage, in the classroom, or in the studio, I believe in the power of music to connect, uplift, and transform lives.
