Listening to the host of traditional musici ans who haunt Irish pubs and to innumerable recordings allowed Matt to fo rge his own compelling style of accompanying Irish music.

Matt Mulqueen was born i n Baltimore\, Maryland\, into a musical family. His older brothers played button accordion and fiddle\, and his sister became a champion step-danc er. This environment instilled in Matt an irresistible desire to learn an d play Irish traditional music. His first music instruction came in the s econd grade when he joined the boys choir at his elementary school. At ag e nine\, Matt asked his parents if he could learn to play the piano. He b egan with group piano lessons at a local community college. From there\, he progressed to private lessons in Irish and Classical music with Donna Long\, who has been the greatest influence on Matt'\;s playing. Listen ing to the host of traditional musicians who haunt Irish pubs and to innu merable recordings allowed Matt to forge his own compelling style of acco mpanying Irish music. Matt returns to the Lyceum\, having performed with Lexi Boatright and Cara Wildman in 2022.\n
