Thanks for stopping by. Check out my other page, matthewide.webs.com. There you can read my bio, see concert dates, purchase CD's, and send me messages.

Yes, I do. Mostly with the southern gospel trio, The Helmsmen (www.thenewhelmsmen.com), sometimes solo if asked.

Lyrically, Peter Furler and Phil Vassar, musically, Phil Vassar, Hootie and the Blowfish, Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Blackhawk, Newsboys.

Cubase 5, Alvarez acoustic with a 3 way pickup system, Presonus preamp and firepod, lots of other recording goodies.

My goal is to glorify God in song. It is through experience and the Holy Spirit's influence that I have come to write these down. I'm just the "lucky guy" that gets the credit for the wonderful things God has given me to put to paper.
