Matthew Runaway's numbers have gone viral. Having generated a fanbase this size within the timeframe of COVID-19 alone, Matthew has placed himself inside the top 5000 biggest YouTube channels in Canada and has created a fresh, new way of pushing his name to the world. Despite this channel's exponential growth in such a short amount of time, Matthew's love for writing and singing country music will always be his utmost priority. Matthew's cattle-and-crop-farm roots have undoubtedly instilled the Small Town-Big Dream energy responsible for his visionary nature. His newest single, Just Drive speaks to those "end-of-the-world" moments we grow up experiencing, only to look back, having aged and realize that these moments have now become some of our fondest memories. "You learn along the way, that there's lessons in the pain."

During Matthew's down time, you can find him working on his modified 5th Gen SS Camaro. 

Matthew Runaway is a rising country singer/songwriter from Perth, Ontario. Raised on a diligent cattle and crops farm, Matthew's songwriting style speaks his established work ethic, recreating the stories he's lived and the memories he's made. 

In his early 20's, Matthew's ambition decisively drove him across those county lines and across North America with his previous EDM rock band, Aspire. With much success, Matthew simultaneously pushed forth with his writing career. Before long, he knew that it was time to start building his dream. With that, he instinctively closed this chapter of his life and began writing the next in pursuit of becoming a country singer/songwriter. 

Matthew has since taken his stories to Nashville, writing music and sharing his talent with an amazing team that championed the release of his debut single "Small Town Pride" in November, 2018. Rooted deeply in his music are such stories that have been captured by lyrically vivid emotion. Each song brings forth true energy and authentic country experience thanks to his growing up on the family farm. Matthew's ability to capture life's most valuable moments in the instance of a song reveal his meticulous attention to detail and bring forward moments that surely take some a lifetime to encounter.

In the last year, Matthew has made his way across radio intriguing his fanbase with his multi-instrument talents. His past singles "Gettin' Over You" and "Sippin' On Summertime" reveal that raised up, feel good, heart-on-your-sleeve vision that we all 'Aspire' to. It's safe to say that music has opened a variety of doors to experiences that many would only dream of - placing Matthew’s brand in the heart of diversity. We can expect great things from Matthew as he continues to push into country's new artist music platform.
