Matt Wertz is a singer songwriter who was originally raised in Liberty, MO, but now calls Nashville, TN home. It was while Wertz was attending the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign as an industrial design major that he developed his passion for singing and songwriting. Wertz gained a considerable fan base by performing at Young Life camps, after releasing "Somedays", his first album, produced by Steve Wilson. His next two studio albums, and one EP, have all been produced by himself and Ed Cash (Chris Tomlin, Amy Grant, Dolly Parton) with an exception on the EP where his best friend Dave Barnes helped produce the album. In addition to touring with such acts as Jason Mraz, Jamie Cullum, Gavin Degraw, Matt Nathanson and Jars of Clay, Wertz has headlined several national tours.
