The journey set by Matthew is not only inspirational but also something the world is proud of.

Early life

Matthew Schultz comes from New Jersey where he lived with his parents and sister.  At the age of 16, Matthew started playing guitar and started his own band with Chris Daughtry. He also performed with the band ‘Supertanker’ which was formed by Peter Greiser, one of the original members of Dave Matthews in Charlottesville, Virginia. Not only in music, but he was also brilliant in other fields too. He graduated from Montclair State University with the highest GPA of all the university sports programs.

Today, the flamboyant musician is an American singer, songwriter, producer, and entrepreneur. He is a well-known solo-recording artist. His work is influenced by dance, chill pop, chill EDM, and EDM. He is most famously known for his song ‘Somewhere Far’ which hit over 8 million streams on Spotify. This song became a part of Spotify’s top playlists like ‘Chill Hits’. It made its spot on the ‘Viral 50’ list in 8 countries across the globe. To overcome the hangover of lock-down, Matthew is working to release his next collaborative work with Zolo. His upcoming work ‘One Wok’ is a chilled-out dancehall to an indie-pop kind of chorus that will be featuring a light and breezy soundscape, somewhat tropical in tone but minimalist in layers and pop-driven in its chord progression.

Upcoming Single

One Wok (ft. Zolo), is a laid-back dancehall track inspired by artists like Tory Lanez, Kranium, Skillibeng, and Major Lazer. It starts out with a fragile but very significant refrain from Zolo over a four-chord synth progression, deep dub bass, and simple but effective percussion. It then switches to Matthew’s fine lead vocals on the verse, which works as a nice contrast to Zolo’s slick rapping. With a syncopated-lilting rhythm, one’s hips will be swaying on the dance floor after listening to this track. The track builds to the irresistible title hook: “I one wok for you….”. Lyrically, it’s about desiring someone so much that you’re prepared to put in the arduous yards to get them.

Matthew Schultz & Zolo kick off this side of the summer with a creatively colorful groove as this refreshing collaborative release “One Wok.” Maintaining the record of several hugely successful tracks is not easy but Matthew Schultz and Zolo have created a banger that will undoubtedly leave an impact on the dance floor and will work for commercial radio too. Matthew has a definite talent for producing summer smashes that sound good all year round and One Wok is yet another. ‘One Wok’ is a summer anthem and the perfect antidote to lock-down blues.

Matthew Schultz continues to mix things up in the creative pop world, and this collaboration marks an impressive step back into the limelight – as well as offering a fairly timeless go-to for whenever those isolation blues start seeping in.

One Wok is designed to enlighten the mood in just about any situation.
