From Heartbreak to Harmony: Matt Waugh’s Journey Through Music and Connection

Music

After experiencing the emotional turmoil of a breakup, Matt Waugh turned to the MeetMe app not for romance, but simply for conversation and companionship. Lonely and needing someone to talk to, he made it clear he wasn’t looking to play games or flirt—just genuine human connection. On his first day on the app, he met someone who started the same day, and their bond quickly grew into a deep friendship. They supported each other without the pressure of romance, becoming emotional anchors during a vulnerable time.

Born and raised in Hilo on the Big Island of Hawaii, Matt’s love for music has always been a constant in his life. While working as a commercial and residential painter, he would often sing along to music, earphones in, while painting. Though initially surprised by compliments on his voice, he began to believe in his talent and took a leap into music. His songs are deeply personal, often reflecting on failed relationships and emotional challenges, like in his latest track “Downhill.” His lyrics are based on real-life experiences, set to slow-paced melodies that allow listeners to connect with the story behind the music.

Matt describes himself as someone who faces life with gratitude, choosing to focus on the positive and treat everyone with kindness. Faith plays a key role in his mindset, as does creativity—especially through cooking and travel, which help him clear his mind and relax. He’s humble about comparisons to stars like Justin Bieber and Justin Timberlake, but takes pride in knowing his voice has made an impression.

Looking ahead, Matt dreams of continuing to create and perform music, regardless of the size of the audience. He’d also be open to acting—anything that keeps his creative spirit alive. A major milestone is set for May 11, with the release of his song “In the Same Space” on Spotify and Apple Music, a moment that he sees as a dream finally coming to life. With the help of people like Casso from Alpha Kingz Music, Matt is turning his passion into a path forward—one heartfelt lyric at a time.
