Matthew Caldwell

Matthew Caldwell is a 14-year-old singer/songwriter from Draper, Utah. He was born on 20 October 2001 and his hometown is Alpine, Utah. His genre of music is Pop. Matthew is also a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

It became apparent that Matthew had been blessed with the gift to sing when the ward that he attends at Church heard him singing at the top of his lungs in primary, and with perfect pitch. When he was 10-years-old, unbeknownst to his parents, he personally asked his Bishop if he could sing “How Great Thou Art” in sacrament meeting. Little did he himself probably realize, but he was about to embark on an amazing journey using the gift of music that he had been given. He begged his parents to let him take voice lessons, and has been taking professional lessons from vocal coach, Pat Pymm, for the past four years.

Matthew has been a part of the One Voice Children’s Choir, an American children’s choir in Utah, for two years, singing with the group, and as a soloist. Being a part of the choir has given him many great opportunities including performing on the reality television series on the NBC television network, America’s Got Talent, when the choir made it to the quarter finals performing in New York City at Radio City Music Hall. In December 2015, the One Voice Children’s Choir had the wonderful opportunity to perform at the White House for President and Mrs. Obama. Also in 2015, Matthew sang the National Anthem at a Jazz Game.

He enjoys recording music and has done multiple projects including recording a song with Sony for the new Swan Princess movie, and he recently recorded a song for a video produced by Brandyn Cross.

He has had some great opportunities from singing in the Vocal Sport Competition. He won first place in audience favorite and judges choice in his category for this year, and also in 2015. Because of Vocal Sport, he has also had the opportunity to showcase his talents in other venues.

Matthew’s desire is to share positive and inspirational messages through music that will bless people’s lives. Music has always helped him get through the hard times in his life, and he feels like it’s a blessing from God.
