Matty Mullins is best known as the lead vocalist for Dallas-based metalcore unit Memphis May Fire. Born July 3, 1988 in Spokane, Washington, Mullins, whose father was a pastor, spent his formative years listening to bands like Audio Adrenaline and the Newsboys. He played with a handful of like-minded groups before nailing an audition for Memphis May Fire in 2008, with whom he would go on to release five studio albums and an EP between 2009 and 2016. His largely faith-based eponymous debut solo album, which introduced a more nuanced and radio-ready style that traded in some of the more jarring hardcore elements for electronic textures, was issued via Rise Records in September 2014. In January, 2017 Mullins issued the eponymous first single from his sophomore studio long-player Unstoppable, which dropped later that spring. ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi
