Matt Hoffer

Dave Herrero

Bio

Matt Hoffer is a singer/songwriter based in Chicago, Illinois. Matt appeared on the second season of Rock Star on CBS (Rock Star Supernova) but was punted unfairly/early due to Supernova's dismal reaction to his cover of Duran Duran's Planet Earth. His departure was controversial, the band citing his "poor song choice" as a reason for his elimination while several vocally weak competitors remained.

Matt has played shows with fellow Chicageon and Rock Star alum Marty Casey. (See Marty Casey and the Lovehammers) Currently Matt is fronting a new band called Holding Mercury which will release an e.p. in August 2007.
