Initially picking up his mother's guitar \"solely for the purpose of getting girls,\" Matt now writes less about relationships and more on the idea of spiritual unrest and life's greater struggles.\n\nMatt says he is greatly inspired by the works of John Updike, the late American novelist famous for his work in The Rabbit series. In honor of Updike's recent passing, Matt is offering a free download of his song \"Rabbit\".\n\nTeen Vogue asked Matt what inspired him to write \"Rabbit\" originally:\n\n\"As I sat down at my desk with a guitar in hand, I looked at my bookcase and caught a glimpse of the \"Rabbit, Run\" title on the spine of the book--that was the beginning and end of it for me. It was as if memories from the past coupled with ones I could clearly remember of Harry Angstrom's took hold of my subconscious.\""^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
