== Early Life ==
Matthew Michael Melton was born on November 10, 1982 in Memphis, Tennessee. As a child, he was trained as a choir singer, performing in various operas, including Carmen and Tosca, between the ages of 8 and 12. In the early 1990s, he joined John Denver as a singer in his children's back-up choir. His affinity for music developed throughout his teenage years as he was introduced to punk and rock music.
After completing high school, Melton was awarded a portfolio-based scholarship to Memphis College of Art, eventually earning a BFA degree in photography in 2005. During his time in art school, he gained recognition for his series of abandoned buildings in the vicinity of Memphis as well as his thesis project ''Cafeterium'', in which he photographed every high school cafeteria in Memphis. The latter project, however, was lauded just as much for its stark images as Melton's iconoclastic display on the opening night of their exhibition. Intending to "imply that the photographs were taken illegitimately",〔Popper, Ben (December 9, 2005). ("Arresting Artwork" ). ''Memphis Flyer''.〕 Melton staged his own arrest. "By attempting this, I was conducting an experiment that explored the way we value the image," he explained. During this period, Melton also gained traction in the local music scene, performing in the River-City Tanlines with Alicja Trout of Lost Sounds and his own band, the Memphis Break-Ups, while booking shows for Memphis venue XY&Z.〔Lisle, Andria (July 30, 2004). ("Local Beat" ). ''Memphis Flyer''.〕 In 2006, he photographed Jay Reatard for the cover of his first solo album, ''Blood Visions''.〔Lisle, Andria (July 10, 2009). ("Jay Reatard: Under the Covers" ). ''Memphis Flyer''.〕
