MUSIC | BBQ | ALL THINGS RAD. Matt Benne is an American multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and producer from St. Louis, MO. I’m Matt. Cool. Sweet.
Even though Matt’s baby face may deceive you, he has 20 years of experience as a guitarist & song writer. In addition to learning guitar at a young age, Benne has also taught himself how to play drums & piano. Though these are his primary drivers as a musician, they are not his limitations as a song writer. “In 2020 Ryan Cheney & I were working on The Lion. On the first track, Jesse James, I fel
All the homies came together to help me elevate the studio! Can’t wait to see this all wrapped up! It’ll be vibe city!
Happy Thanksgiving, y’all!
Happy Thanksgiving Fivefold Fam! 🖤
This year, we have a lot to be thankful for. Most importantly, we are incredibly thankful for each of you! We took a bold move to release a full length album for the first time in 8 years…and the love and support have been overwhelming!
It wouldn’t be possible without your love and appreciation for the music we create. It also wouldn’t be possible without the love and support from our community. The hours of sacrifice from each of us, from our wives and families…it means the world to have all of this support from such wonderful people.
So, thank you all so much for another wonderful year, another album, and all of the memories we’ve made together.
We love you!
-Matt, Ryan, & Derrick
P.S. - Check back tomorrow for an updated online merch store and some Black Friday deals 🖤

We had a blast at the balloon glow last night! Thanks to my boy for capturing us out in the wild! 📸:
We made it!
Here are some pics of our recent adventures!
Not only are we playing June 21st with & at - we are also doing a special FREE show with the awesome and talented August 11th at ! We are so stoked to be performing there and celebrating the 10 year anniversary of the Hold On EP! Hope to see y’all there!
Haven’t shared a pic of Nora in a while! Crazy this is her last summer before 1st grade. Time freakin FLIES! Anyway, here’s my beautiful little handful of a 6 year old!
Looking through my distrokid today, I realized that I’ve accumulated over a million streams on material I’ve produced the last three years! Anyway, I thought this was cool and wanted to share! 🍻
Rainy day mixing! On the final stages of some excellent Silent Hollow bangers! How’s everyone’s weekend going? Any cool new musical projects we all need to know about? I’ve definitely got some extremely cool new stuff in the works to include a brand new project as well as more Fivefold! Anyway - y’all enjoy your Saturday!
Can’t believe my little girl is SIX today! Man, time flies! Nora Jean means the world to me. Her personality and brilliance will take her anywhere she wants in this life. Happy birthday to my baby girl!
I am beyond grateful to see so much growth in the camp. It was just this last December we were sitting at under 150k monthly listeners - now we are sitting above 260k! We also hit 12 million streams on Lost Within this week! Can’t believe after all these years we still receive this much love and support! If you haven’t checked our socials, we’ve got a new music announcement coming at you this Sunday! We’ve been continually grinding and have some other amazing stuff in the works as well! Thanks to all of our fans listeners and fivefold family! I love y’all with all of my heart!
It’s crazy to see such an influx in listeners. Today it’s sitting at 206k . We usually see a dip toward the end of the year, but to see a boost of 57k active monthly listeners in just over a month is wild to me! I am grateful! Can’t wait for y’all to hear the next one we are working on! Hopefully soon!
Woke up to over 200,000 monthly listeners on Spotify!! Thanks for all the love, Fivefold Family! 🖤
Here’s a video for a track I recently worked on with an old friend who wanted to gift his loved one a song!
Yo! It’s finally out! Here’s the official video for Lost Within Re-imagined!
Fivefold - Lost Within (Re-imagined) (Official Video) Lost Within is a song about finding the light at the end of the tunnel. This world and its many obstacles can be soul breaking. It's easy to give up. It’s up...
Next Friday, y’all! I had so much fun on this one! 10 years after we wrote and released Lost Within, we decided to re-imagine it - with a brand new vibe & fresh perspective! Can’t wait for you to hear it!
Hey everyone! Most of you know me for my work with Fivefold - but I’ve also co-written with artists like BROOKROYAL, Fire The Humans, KG Lillian, It’s My Microphone, Nick Audrain, & Ryan Cheney. I’ve performed along side some great musicians over the years and have received some very unbelievable feedback and praise for my writing and guitar playing! I don’t claim to be the best - but if you feel so inclined to nominate me as your favorite local musician…that would be INCREDIBLE! If you choose to do so, take a screen shot, send it to me and I’ll send you my song Livin’ On before it comes out next Friday!
Thanks for the years of support!
Much love,
BENNE

Merry Christmas Eve! This year, I wrote a country Christmas song for my beautiful wife and daughter. Due to my recent workload, I wasn't able to complete it in time for an official release, so I wanted to share via Soundcloud! I hope you enjoy!
