Matt Cardle, born Matthew Sheridan Cardle, is a former painter/decorator who won the hearts of millions on the X Factor 2010. His popularity and devotion to the show paid off when he was announced the overall winner. He currently has his debut single, 'When We Collide', available to buy following his X Factor win. Matt has been in some bands before the X Factor, including Seven Summers and Darwyn, though accomplished his first number 1 with 'When We Collide', but not just any number 1 the Christmas No.1 of 2010! He now plans to write and co-write songs on his upcoming album, and has even mentioned the idea of a song with his 'BFF' Aiden, who he formed a bromance with during the X Factor shows. They're relationship is better known as 'Maiden'. Matt has been a great contestant, topping the votes each week (except week one) and hopefully has a busy music filled career ahead of him.

I started off playing drums and then got into the guitar because it was much cooler at the time. Drums is the most fun instrument to play, you get to hit stuff, you know? Bass, I think, comes a little bit with playing guitar. And piano, that's really it. I don't play the trumpet. Show less «
