Blake Matteson grew up in Vermont with a love of music. Her parents like to say she could sing before she could talk. Around the age of 10 she started playing guitar but then seriously began studying the instrument at age 12. Her family is very musical but her grandpa was the one that inspired her to play the guitar. Blake loves to write her own songs and finds that being able to craft her own lyrics and harmony is a great mode of self-expression. Blake loves all kinds of musicians - her biggest inspirations are Joni Mitchell, Bob Marley, Alicia Keys, Brandi Carlile, Adele, and Jewel, among others. For the past year or so Blake has been steadily taking her music career to the next level and in March 2024 she completed her debut recording at Tank Recording Studio in Burlington, VT. This opportunity was offered through her scholarship at the Burlington Music Dojo, where she studies music.
 

Whenever Blake has an opportunity to perform she feels this sparkle inside her that connects her to the love and passion she has for music. It is undoubtedly what she wants to do with the rest of her life. For Blake, music is a love that will never be diminished.
