Matt Mason (singer)
Matt Mason is an American singer/songwriter who has been writing and recording music for nearly 16 years now. Writing from his experiences of a life that few live to tell about, his redemptive story is one that can be heard in his music and something he talks openly about hoping that it can help others in the way.
Although, his life may have been more than troubled, at times, he gives all the credit to where he is now to Jesus Christ.
Matt’s music can be found on all streaming platforms where music can be played.
