About Matt Lesch
Born in 1997 in St. Louis Missouri, Matt “The Rattlesnake” Lesch started playing guitar at the age of 11. By the age of 12, he took a serious interest in blues and started studying the masters such as Albert King, B.B. King, Freddie King, Buddy Guy, Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf.
At the age of 16 he was taken in and mentored by local blues legend Big George Brock and quickly became Big George’s lead guitar player. After performing at many national blues festivals across the country with Big George, Matt quickly became a seasoned veteran at an early age. Matt has had his own band since the age of 16 playing all the local blues clubs and festivals in St Louis, Missouri and Illinois.
At the age of 18, Matt started attending Webster University as a Jazz Performance major. In October of 2018, Matt released his debut album Furious Strike at the age of 20. Furious Strike brings a modern, contemporary style to the blues genre that includes his original music and modern playing style.
Now 28, he has played all over the U.S.A and internationally in France, Denmark and more. His most recent release Blues Cut Like Glass consists of all original music and has been nominated for 2 Blues Blast Awards, best Rock Blues Album, and the Sean Costello Rising Star Award. He won the 2025 Sean Costello Rising Star Award.
Matt's raw, intricate guitar playing and soulful voice capture the attention of audience members anywhere he performs and will leave you wanting to hear more of "The Rattlesnake."
