Matt Epp is the quintessential itinerant troubadour. As a young man, Epp grew up moving frequently within Manitoba, where he was entranced with skateboarding, snowboarding, and making videos about the same. In his early twenties Matt had an experience that led him to music. He was left feeling in the innermost recesses of his soul the need to sing. There was a small problem; Matt did not know how to play an instrument, sing, or write songs. Propelled by his newfound inspiration and conviction that this is what he must do, Matt set to learning. His deep work ethic and perhaps his penchant for learning the hard way- in front of an audience- helped him learn quickly. Committed to his musical craft, he gave up his Winnipeg, MB apartment for the privilege of performing and connecting with people around the world. Read more on Last.fm.
