Matt Wachter
Full Name: Matthew Walter Wachter
Current Age: 32
Matthew Walter Wachter was born January 5, 1976 in Pottsville, Pennsylvania. As a child, he spent most of his time with his family in New Jersey and Boston. An active child, Matt participated in baseball and soccer, taking up swimming as well. His interest in music bloomed when he was around five years old, and between the ages of five and eight, Matt experimented with various instruments, focusing primarily on the piano and drums.
Matt reached the peak of his musical interest around high school and spent most of his time playing in bands. He picked up the bass, he stated, because he "wanted to play in a band, and the band needed a bass player." Matt had no previous experience with the bass, the closest being experimenting with the guitar. He credited former Metallica bassist, the late Cliff Burton, as his inspiration for wanting to play the bass guitar.
Wachter was rumored to have worked in a slaughter house, but confessed in a KAOS2000 Magazine interview that he and his band mates made up the story to stir up an otherwise dull interview.
He is the former bassist for alternative rock group 30 Seconds to Mars. He was with the band from 2001 to 2007. He joined Angels & Airwaves in April 2007, replacing the band's former bassist, Ryan Sinn.
