Who MattRach?
First, thank you for posting your song. I enjoyed it. Did you post it on the old AGF? It seems familiar to me for some reason.

MattRach is a French guitarist/multi-instrumentalist. He was a kid phenom. He's older now. He was 17 when he wrote and performed this one. He has a TON of stuff on youtube. I watched everything he did for a while. He was one of those youngin's that made me think more than once about selling all my gear.

EDIT: I let the channel keep playing after the linked song. The young man has some amazing all instrumental covers of some iconic songs from bands we all know like Queen, Metallica and more. Super-talented fellow.

Thank you for taking time to listen, sir!

MattRach... that is a kid with amazing talent! I think I'm selling my gear too. Young'ins today are amazing!

It's like it all depends on the player instead of the equipment, hmmm 🤔

Blasphemy! I know that if I just buy that $5000 Gibson, it will make me play better!

What's wrong with that? I play metal on my tele all the time.

If you can do metal on a strat, you can do it on a tele!
Good vid, by the way!
