Matt Herring

Black Sabbath The Vinyl Testament Matt Herring

Writer Matt (Matman) Herring has been passionate about music his entire life, a gift given to him by his parents, who always had music playing in the house he grew up in. His older sister, Meredith, helped to cultivate his tastes by providing a great collection of albums to listen to and borrow when she wasn't home. Herring became a singer in a band, an on-air disc jockey and now, for the past 15 years, a podcaster and author with his love of music still dominating everything he does. His last two music biographies, UFO - YOUR FAVORITE BAND'S FAVORITE BAND and ASIA - TIME AND TIME AGAIN were well received by the fans as well as the bands themselves, all expressing an appreciation of his personal approach and conversational writing style. Matt lives on the side of a lake in Massachusettes with his wife Amy, daughters Rebekah and Samantha, three cats, a lot of music and a crap-ton of comic books. Matt can be heard on The Power Chords Podcast, 53:5 The Official Stryper Podcast, The Monarch Theatre Podcast and The Radio Eclectic!
