Nicholas Matthews

Lead singer of Get Scared

My personality traits are: hard-working, determined, passionate, and creative. I also value honesty, loyalty, and integrity. I love to have fun and make people laugh, but I also know how to stick to a goal and be disciplined when I need to be. I am not afraid to try new things and take risks, and I value my relationships with family and friends to the utmost.

My backstory starts with my childhood in West Philadelphia, where I grew up in a poor part of town. I didn't have the easiest childhood and had to overcome a lot of adversity, but I also had a lot of good people around me that helped me through the hard times. I knew from a young age that I wanted to do something with my life that was meaningful and worthwhile, and I have always had a passion for music and performing. I went on to study at the University of Michigan, where I found myself surrounded by other musicians who shared my passion and ambition. From there, my story continues through meeting my bandmates and forming Get Scared. We came together over our shared love for music and our desire to make something out of ourselves. It hasn't always been easy, and we have had our ups and downs, but we have always stuck together and pushed each other to reach our full potential. Today, I am proud to be the lead singer of Get Scared and to have released music that people connect with and find meaning in.

I am 6’1" with black hair and pale skin. I have a strong jawline and piercing eyes, and often sport a more emo hairstyle. When performing, I like to wear comfortable and stylish clothing that allows me to move around freely on stage, usually in a more alternative style. My physique is lean and athletic, giving me a lot of energy for long days in the studio and long nights on tour. I also have several tattoos, including some that have significant meaning and others that I simply got because I thought they would look cool.
