Matty Mullins (born July 3, 1988) is an American singer who is the lead vocalist of the metalcore band Memphis May Fire and touring lead vocalist of alternative band Anberlin.[1]
Life and career
Matty Mullins was born and raised in Spokane, Washington.[2][3] His father was a pastor.[4][5] He grew up in a Conservative Christian family and was only allowed to attend the concerts of Christian rock bands.[6] Mullins graduated from Shadle Park High School. When he was 18, he married Brittany Mullins.[7] He is living in Nashville, TN.[4]
Before joining Memphis May Fire through an open audition in 2008 Mullins played in several local music groups in Spokane.[8] He worked on the Between the Lies EP and the albums Sleepwalking, The Hollow, Challenger, Unconditional, This Light I Hold, Broken, Remade in Misery and Shapeshifter.
He is featured as guest vocalist for several acts like Woe, Is Me, Hands Like Houses, Sleeping with Sirens, For Today, Spoken, Nowhere To Be Found and Yellowcard.[9][10][11][12] In 2013 it was announced that Mullins started a solo project.[13] His solo album was scheduled for release on September 23, 2014, via Rise Records.[14][15] It debuted at 66 on the Billboard 200 charts in the US the week of October 11, 2014.[16]
On October 10, 2023, lead singer Stephen Christian of Anberlin announced he would be stepping down from touring. Mullins was chosen as Anberlin's new live lead vocalist, and on June 14, 2024, the band announced their album Vega, which features two songs with Mullins on lead vocals, "Walk Alone" and "Seven". "Walk Alone" was released on June 21, 2024 with an accompanying music video, with Mullins appearing to take over fully the mantle of the band's lead vocalist.[17][18][19]
Musical influences
He stated being influenced by bands like Every Time I Die, Architects, Bring Me the Horizon and Asking Alexandria. As well as Anberlin, who he later became a singer for.[20]
Mullins is the main songwriter for Memphis May Fire. His lyrics often deal with personal experiences, both as a person and a musician, and his Christian faith.
Mullins wrote "Prove Me Right" about the band's former label, Trustkill Records, and is a critique on the younger music industry.[21]
Personal life
In 2016, Mullins launched a men's grooming brand: On Point Pomade.[22] He is active with his wife Brittany's peer-to-peer mentoring nonprofit, Beneath the Skin.[23]
