Matty Mullins

A gifted performer with an ear for melody and a heart for empathy, Matty Mullins proclaims a courageous faith. One of Contemporary Christian music’s most dynamic young voices, the Nashville singer shares the hope of the Gospel with a breathtaking combination of sincere passion and humility. 

As frontman for the hitmaking rock group Memphis May Fire, a band raised up from the hardcore-punk scene, Matty is no stranger to plainspoken confrontations of the issues faced by the youth of today. His confessional and autobiographical lyrics have made him one of the heavy music world’s most relatable figures, inspiring singalongs in clubs, theaters, and arenas worldwide. 

A kind, compassionate, and gregarious son of a pastor, Mullins has been extremely open about his own struggles with panic, depression, and anxiety. He shares his story in interviews, songs, onstage, on social media, and in one-on-one conversations with fans.

Matty Mullins is a bit of an anomaly when you think of loud-in-your-face metalcore music. The soft-spoken, well-mannered musician constantly wears a smile on his face and isn’t afraid to talk to anybody about his faith.

A near crippling series of panic attacks, seemingly from out of nowhere, led to professional care and a reinvigorating of the Christian faith with which he was raised. Shortly before the release of Memphis May Fire’s Unconditional, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Rock chart, Matty kickstarted a solo career centered on the CCM rock and pop music that first inspired him. “Christian music has been a constant reminder of God’s goodness in my life,” he happily declares. 

His eponymously titled debut solo album was filled with worshipful supplications, over music that ranged from danceable pop to a more singer/songwriter style. His second solo album, the broad and inviting Unstoppable, connected on an even bigger level. Both solo albums are collections of songs colored by authentic truth and stark admissions of personal brokenness; joyous worship from an earnest young man who draws strength from Christ. It’s about relationship, not religion. Memphis May Fire is one vehicle with a certain reach in the mainstream world; Matty’s solo work reaches into CCM. Both, he hopes, ultimately glorify God.
