Matt really dived deep into how he writes songs. My personal opinion is that the way he explained everything was really simple but so powerful. I've always thought writing a good song was very daunting and this cause helped me realise that it actually isn't.

Hi Matthew !! I really enjoyed your zoom lesson on songwriting. I do however have a question that I didn’t want to ask on the zoom as i feel that no one else could’ve related because of my age. Since i am 14 years old, i haven’t really experienced too much about life, which leaves me wondering if you would have any tips or advice where to gain inspiration elsewhere? Maybe putting myself in someone else’s shoes? Hope you have a great day :)

I'm a huge fan of Matthew's incredible music. Thank you so much for this great opportunity to hear how Matthew puts his thoughts and feelings into song. His positivity and honesty made me feel like I can get stuck into songwriting with feeling pressured to write the perfect song every time. He has inspired me to keep practicing and write a story from the heart.
