For the past 25 years, Mathis Hunter has been performing music and curating aural experiences throughout Atlanta and beyond. In the mid-nineties, you might have found him playing punk rock shows up and down Howell Mill Rd. At the turn of the century, he was employed at one of Atlanta’s most enduring record stores, Wax n’ Facts where his vinyl collection grew astronomically. This period was coupled with spending way too many evenings at MJQ and soaking up all the club bangers for later use as a DJ. The 2000’s saw him writing, recording, and releasing records in addition to touring the country with his bands, Noot d’ Nootand The Selmanaires. The 2010’s have seen Mathis take his DJing from a side hustle to the center of his operations. His current residency is at Bar Margot inside of the Four Seasons Atlanta on Fridays and Saturdays. A new studio album entitled “Mood Lighting” is due in May 2020. Whether playing live music at a dive bar, or DJing in a 5 star hotel, there are few situations where Mathis can not find the proper musical frequency. In tune, on time, all the time, as the saying goes. This breadth of musical openness comes from a lifelong love of sitting by the stereo while listening and playing along to music for most waking hours of the day.
