Matt Golightly realized his passion for stand-up comedy shortly after graduating from University of
Texas in San Antonio in 2002, and hasn’t stopped working since. His quick wit, relatable
material, and very likeable stage presence has garnered him many fans in the comedy world,
along with broad appeal among a wide demographic. He is continually amazed at the range of
people- from all walks of life- who have stopped to tell him how much they enjoyed his show.
After working in every type of room- comedy clubs, colleges, one-nighters, country clubs, and
corporate gigs- Matt developed an ability to read audiences, ensuring that they always have a
good time during his show. His views on dating, the club scene, politics, and popular culture
come across as goodhearted and fun - not angry or bitter. Due to his insatiable work ethic, and
because he is a self proclaimed “square,” Matt is exceedingly reliable on a professional level. His
peers know him to be a genuinely good guy who happens to be hilarious.
