Matt Sassano is a Christian Rock artist who draws upon the difficult experiences he's been through in life to make hope-giving music that glorifies God. Born with cerebral palsy and dyscalculia, Matt talks about how he coped with those disabilities and hasn't allowed them to limit his dreams. Suffering abuse from his dad and feeling like he had to protect the family's facade, Matt talks about the effect that had on his mental health and why he's a big proponent of people seeking out help. One way Matt is helping with that, is by teaming with TheHopeLine and Choose 2 Live to give those that are struggling an avenue to seek out help. No longer defined by the labels others put on him, Matt is touring the world and spreading the hope that is only found in Jesus.
