Smooth, sparkling harmonies mix with powerful emotion to breathe new life into modern hits, traditional standards, hymns, and their own heart-warming songs celebrating real life and real love.They’ve appeared in concert from New Jersey to Nashville, performing over 350 events each year (close to 4,000 since 2010).You May Have Seen Them At Events Sponsored By:American Cruise Lines, Berkshire Hathaway, ORVIS Stores, Dickey's BBQ Pit, US ARMY, National Street Rod Association,York Revolution & Lancaster Barnstormers Baseball, National Day Of Prayer, and more."Our love started in music," Matt says, "We've played together as friends since 1988 and as husband/wife since 1993. Sometimes it was hard and it looked like we wouldn't make it, but we weren't quitting. As we revealed ourselves to God and each other, He healed us and brought us into the SweetLife; hence the name. And we’re still best friends after all these years." Carol agrees, "Music's a huge part of our marriage, and that relationship is the foundation for our songs."They've created/released five full-length recordings and dozens of singles. With roughly 1,000 song credits, they're still writing their own love story and creating “snapshots” of important moments & family events. Their latest full-length release (self-titled SWEETLIFE) is their closest audio representation of their hearts & minds so far."You can find their music and events here:https://www.sweetlifemusic.com/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-story/donations
