Matt Wallace was hatched in Nederland Texas sometime after disco but before Nirvana. Actually, Matt is a very talented musician that attends Sam Houston State University majoring in music/voice. Matt plays in various jazz ensembles & does freelance performances with various groups. Don was asked, "what do like most about Matt?" to which he replied, "his honesty, cause there's nothing else I like about the guy" Just kidding!
