SMALL AUTOBIOGRAPHY ON CONDEWIT: Matt Ortega has been in the music industry since he was 15 years old.Matt was the quiet kid who always brought his CD player to school everyday and would listen to music while either going from class to class, or when the teacher would assign work to be done in class. It was only later that Matt realized that music is his life(the first time he picked up a guitar, was when it was a gift when he was 4 years old, it was only a matter of time until Matt took music a lot more seriously). Matt's dad always had a good collection of acoustics around the house for him to jam on whenever he wanted, and eventually, Matt's Father ended up giving him one when I turned 13. When Matt turned 16 he met up with some friends and sang in front of them, one of them was soon to be the guitarist of Matt's old band "iNTREPiD". Matt joined the band iNTREPiD before graduating highschool, and had no idea the kind of impression that would leave on him. Playing shows all over Ventura, Los Angeles, and Santa Barbara County for the next three years(that turned out to be one of the best periods of his life) and learned a lot from being able to sell pre-sale tickets in order to get a headlining spot at a venue like "The Roxy". It got to the point that Matt's no longer uncomfortable or nervous on stage(the feeling of adrenaline that I get from the stage is a feeling unlike any other). After the members of iNTREPiD went their seperate ways, Matt went on to write my own music and lyrics just so he could live to perform again(music is what I live for, til the day I die). Matt plans on writing and composing music for the rest of his life, and I appreciate the time you took to read this. Feel free to give me your opinion on what you think of my music. I won't take it personal, I'll note that as constructive criticism and learn from it to hopefully be the next big thing in the music/entertainment industry today.
