Promised my buddy Matt a Matt themed music round for a trivia I run, and am now realizing it's hard to come up with 20 different songs with a Matt band member in them that is still diverse enough for 20 - 70 year olds from country - rap.
Some I already have
Matt Good Band
M Shadows from Avenged Sevenfold,
Matt Mays + El Torpedo
Matty Healey from 1975
Matt Parker from South Park
The Replacements’ nickname is “the Mats.” Might be a stretch.

If it’s Matt themed open it up a bit more with his personal life? State he was born?

Matt Maeson, Matt Costa, Matt Embree (sounds of animals fighting), Matthew Wilder. If the idea is to play music he has to identify, check the first/biggest song on Spotify, and see if you know it. Some of these (mine & others) are lesser known by name, but good chance you’ve heard some of the songs.

Matt Johnson of The The. Their most known song is 'This is the Day', but they have some really great songs including a duet with Sinead O'Connor. The band also did some Hank Williams covers on the album Hanky Panky, which included a revved up rock version of 'I Saw the Light'. The music video of the same song is pretty crazy.
