Matt's narrative-driven writing cuts through the soul, blending blues and folk, encompassed in total honesty. He takes listeners on a ride with his diverse musical styles, skilled guitar work and over-the-top showmanship. Matt's intimate, high-energy performances have captivated audiences across the world, from Canada, to the US, to Australia and the UK, from small clubs to festivals.

"I'm not trying to change anyone's lives in a big way, but I love it when [listeners] really get involved in the music," says Matt, who won three 2012 Maple Blues Awards and received a British Blues Award nomination, among many others. "When people get involved, it really makes it a great night - for everyone."

On January 25, 2010, Andersen won the top prize for a duo/individual in the Memphis, Tennessee, International Blues Challenge, beating artists from 11 other countries and five continents - the first Canadian to prevail over the event's 26 year history.
