About Me

Hi, my name is Matt Velasquez and I am a singer/songwriter currently based out of Santa Cruz, Ca. I am a former lead singer of the band Rebelution who wrote and sang songs such as What I know, Running, Ordinary Girl, Heart like a Lion, Courage to Grow etc. Since my departure from Rebelution I moved up to the Santa Cruz area to pursue other interests. Last year I released a Cd titled "Back to the Sun", which is available on itunes, and am hoping to release an acoustic Cd later this year. Lately I have been working on new material and playing acoustic sets around town. I am hoping to get another band together and maybe do a small tour but as for now I'm just staying locally. I would like to thank everyone for their continued support and hopefully, one of these days, I will make it to a town near you. Thanks.
