Today's podcast is a special episode. Matt Hammitt has had an incredible journey. Most people met him during his days of Sanctus Real and so the big question is what has he been doing since then…

In this episode we hear about his journey from Sanctus Real til now. The walk of faith, trusting God, the trials his family has overcome, etc. All this can be heard and can also be heard throughout his new album that's available everywhere. 

This album was special for us since this was our first album released through our record label. We didn't believe the world needed another album but instead songs with a purpose and that's what Matt Hammitt's new album fulfills.

Follow @MattHammitt on all socials and signup for his email at matthammittmusic.com to keep up to date with what he's doing. Also make sure to follow @officialfcmusic to keep up to date with what we are doing as well.
