Matthew Mole Facts
- He has recalled that his musically talented father had offered to teach him basic chords when Matthew had got his first guitar at the age of 11.
- He had formed an electro-pop duo with his closest pal in college as a hobby and also in order to experiment with electronics. Later on, he began playing solo shows with an acoustic guitar, drum, synths, as well as electronic equipment.
- Matthew has disclosed that he has regarded his song Brother & Sister (2019) to have been one of the most wonderful numbers he has ever had in a recording. He had written it for his sister. After the song was recorded, there was a section where he had craved for her voice. So, he had requested her to record herself singing it with her phone, and then text it over to him. It was only a single word that she added but it made all the difference and turned the single into one of his most special creations.
- He has revealed one of his most memorable stories from the road to have been one that happened when he was in Hollywood in 2014. He was strolling along some random street when out of nowhere, Snoop Dogg had just popped out of some apartment and Matthew’s mind had not been able to handle it.
