Matt Mathews is a comedian,
singer/songwriter, and
unapologetic trailblazer whose
blend of raw honesty, quick wit,
and Southern charm has made him
one of comedy’s
fastest-rising stars. Born and
raised in Birmingham, Alabama,
Mathews first captured attention
during the pandemic with viral
“farm chore” videos
that showcased his humor and
authenticity, quickly building a
devoted following of more than 12
million fans and generating over a
billion views across social
media.
What began as a playful diversion
from his full-time career as a
boudoir photographer soon ignited
into a new path in stand-up
comedy. Within months of his first
performance in 2022, Mathews was
headlining his own shows and
embarking on his first national
tour. Today, his Live
Nation–promoted Boujee On A
Budget Tour has grown into a
blockbuster, with more than
150,000 tickets sold and stops at
major venues including multiple
shows at Nashville’s
historic Ryman Auditorium and his
first-ever arena show in his
hometown of Birmingham.
Mathews’ comedy is deeply
rooted in his life
experiences—whether as a
farmer, barrel racer,
photographer, proud Alabamian, or
LGBTQ+ voice pushing boundaries in
the entertainment industry. He
creates a space where audiences
can forget the noise of the
outside world and simply laugh.
His work has earned him
recognition from Deadline, who
named him among the “Future
of Comedy,” and from The
Advocate, which celebrated the
unique path he has paved in both
comedy and entertainment.
