Matt Papa may be young at just 22, but there is a depth to his songwriting that reflects wisdom beyond his years. This outspoken minister and accomplished musician is passionate about his faith, and has a gift for crafting lyrics from scripture that are catchy and at the same time pack a spiritual punch.
Matt came to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ at 12 years old, and in the same year, he was also introduced to his grandmother's old six-string, which quickly became a favorite pastime. While in his teens, he began leading worship at his hime church in Georgia and served weekly for the next five years. He then spent three years traveling and leading worship with other ministries, all the while completing college studies in music and guitar.
After a providential meeting with Spin 360 label head and industry veteran, Stan Moser, Matt joined forces with the label and is now preparing for his first national release entitles, You Are Good.
You Are Good has influences of both British rock and classical music. Each song is founded in God's Word and is brought to life by Matt's unique expression and appreciation of the Holy Scriptures. Not only is it rich in Truth, but also in musical excellence and creativity. You Are Good would be an encouragement to any church body or believer who desires to worship the Father with scripural and adoring words set to inspiring music.
'I still remember hearing the British versions of Matt Redman and Delirious CDs in the mid -90's. I knew God was launching a special expession of worship that would greatly impact the church. When I heard Matt's CD, I had the same reaction! I truly believe he is making music the whole church will be singing in the days ahead.' -- Stan Moser
