Matt shot to fame two years ago when he made it to the Top 20 of Delta Goodrem’s team on The Voice Australia. 

The star said earlier this year he is drawn to writing love songs but admitted he doesn’t fall in love easily.

‘I do write a lot of love songs, which is funny because I haven’t had many girlfriends,’ he said.

‘I think it just feels natural to speak my mind through music whereas I struggle in real life sometimes,’ he added.

Matt, who plays Theo Poulos on the show, will have his music played on the series during upcoming scenes.

‘That is super exciting for me because it is really nice to have both of the worlds combine,’ he said.

‘It has been hard almost letting go of music by just doing the acting for a while so it is really nice to be able to do both.’
