Matt Hopper

Coast to Coast: It's in his native Alaska we meet up with Matt Hopper, a super-talented indie rocker on the rise. After a couple of years of chatting it up with Matt from the road, we have struck up a long-distance friendship. He's shared unreleased tracks and tales from the road. And he is constantly touring, playing before audiences all over the US and Canada.
