He was a young adult in college when his parents divorced and his mother, an American citizen, made a move back to the states. Matt made a move to Arizona with her and found himself in a whole new world. Going to church with his cousin, he encountered a youth group for the first time and a Jesus that he had never met. In a matter of weeks, the youth pastor and music director asked Matt to help out, and his road to serving God through music began.

During this time other things changed for Matt as well. He went back to college to finish and get his music degree, and he received a scholarship from Arizona State University to study Jazz Piano.

After college, he moved to Mesa, Arizona and met Dove Award-nominated songwriter and artist Tom Booth. Through that relationship, he worked with several popular artists like Israel Houghton, Kathy Troccoli, and Rich Mullins.

Maher accepted a full-time position at St. Timothy Catholic Community and started writing songs for his church. He released three independent albums through spiritandsong.com.

He began traveling around the world to perform, and it quickly became apparent that his talents as a singer and worship leader were just as strong as his talents as a songwriter. Two years later Essential Records signed him to a recording contract, and his major label release hit stores in 2008.
