He only visions a better tomorrow filled with love, hope and inspiring endeavors. Together with his son Jhuryll Phoenix and family, they have various ongoing projects – a YouTube comedy talk show FatherAndSonTalk, a website www.startoversaga.com where they are trying to raise money by selling albums and helping someone else start over with a hundred thousand dollars, a record company called 424 Records, and web series called Start Over Saga. Something Matt Heart has been forced to do more than once, due to illnesses and mishaps.
Matt Heart stands before us today, once again teamed up with his son, after working together on the brand new single “Baby Girl” ft.
