I’m Matt Soltis, an independent alternative rock artist from Michigan creating music about growth, loss, resilience, and the experiences that shape who we become.

Music has always been my way of understanding the world around me. I first started writing songs as a teenager as a way to process complex emotions and express things I didn’t always know how to say. Songwriting became a place where I could be honest, reflect, and turn personal experiences into something meaningful.

In 2022, I lost my brother in a motorcycle accident. During one of the most difficult periods of my life, music became more than just a creative passion. It became a source of strength and a way to keep moving forward. Writing songs gave me a place to process grief, reconnect with myself, and transform difficult experiences into something that could connect with others.

That experience shaped the artist I am today.

Inspired by the emotional honesty of 90s alternative rock and modern storytelling, my music focuses on authentic lyrics, powerful melodies, and the moments that bring people together. I believe the best songs are the ones that make you feel understood and remind you that you aren’t alone.

As an independent artist, I’m involved in every part of the creative process, from writing and recording music to creating content, performing live, and building a community around the songs.

Thank you for taking the time to listen, follow along, and be part of the journey.
