"Going Live"

“The 21-year-old has made a name for himself as a multi-instrumentalist and singer and can be found at just about any live music venue in town or down the road in Toronto. He has the playing pedigree to go with it, including being handed down the old keyboard that used to be a mainstay at Pop the Gator and playing with former Canadian hardrock queen Lee Aaron.” Vrbanac, Bob “Going live” Waterloo Chronicle [Waterloo]

"Anderson & Co steal the show"

“Matt Weidinger entered the show at the second tune, She Came in Through the Bathroom Window, and nearly sent shock waves through the audience because he sounded so much like Joe Cocker. Basically, every time he got up to sing, he stole the show.” Swartz, John. “Anderson & Co steal the show.” Orillia Packet [Orillia]

"The roots run deep"

“At 21-years-old, Matt has already had many career milestones under his belt - headlining the New Years Eve show in downtown Kitchener, three appearances at the Kitchener Blues Festival, hundreds of gigs, two records released, prestigious offers as a sideman and composing with an iconic Canadian producer.” Egan, Bob “The roots run deep” Own It [Kitchener]

Bio

Matt Weidinger has a voice like no other. The 20-year-old Kitchener, ON native is a passionate young songwriter, who is well known for his mature rock/soul vocals and impressive muitl-instrumental (keybaords, guitars) talents.

Weidinger has spent the last year focusing primarily on his work with the band LumberJunk and his songwriting, which included several sold-out shows and the release of two EPs.. 

His unmistakable earthly tones captivate the hearts of anyone who hears it. He performs like a veteran musician on the piano and organ, and is equally proficient on guitar, bass or mandolin.   

Although some consider him a throw back of the '60s, he still has the capacity to grab the attention of both the old, young and everyone in between. He's an old soul who easily commands the attention of any crowd.  His passion for music and performing is contagious.

Starting his music career at the ripe age of 15, Weidinger has had the pleasure of playing a variety of venues around Southwestern Ontario on a weekly basis. He also performs at multiple blues festivals around the province. 

His raspiness is used often to accentuate the emotion he emulates.  Yet, its never overdone. He knows what he is doing. Dubecki, Craig, Velvet Rope. V.1.15.
