Matt Manes

"I am crucified with Christ. I no longer live but Christ lives in me." - Galatians 2:20.
That is one of my favorite verses, because it is a call from God for me to lay my life (my past, present, and future) down before Him and lets me know that it is no longer Matt Manes that has control over his life, but it God who lives inside of me that is controlling each and every step.
Matt Manes was born and raised in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania and began playing the drums when he was 10 years old. Starting with the snare drum and eventually moving up to the full drum set, Matt's playing has blossomed into one of the better players that will hear today. While listening to a wide variety of music from country to rock to jazz to the Blues and even to rap, Matt's style is one that is hard to match.
Matt has had the opportunity to share the stage with the following artists:
- Cloudchase
- Mallory Carter Band
- Geoff Smith
- One Foot Forward
- Ben Deem
- Jeremy Casella
- Wade Williams
- Sarah Leonard
- Kyle Cooper
