One of the most inspiring musicians I know! His creativity in his compositions is endless and certainly worthy of merit. He is a confident and passionate individual who makes everyone feel welcome. Everyone should listen and learn from real experiences and stories like his. (And check out his music!)

A beautiful video, Mat. I'm so incredibly happy to see you share this publicly. You've been an inspiration to me for about a decade and for many reasons, from the quality of your compositions to the brightness of your character, to - yes - the eloquence of your speech even with a speech impediment. You're a major force in the music world, and I hope that this video serves as an inspiration to many others to never let their life challenges deter them from following their dreams. Thank you for everything you shared in this video.
