You might know Matty Matheson the chef and you might know Matty Matheson the actor (he plays handyman Neil Fak in The Bear, a show about chefs) but get ready to meet Matty Matheson the rock star.

Pig Pen is a hardcore band started by Matheson alongside Wade MacNeil of Alexisonfire, guitarist Daniel Romano, drummer Ian Ski Romano, and Tommy Major on bass.

Matheson announced his involvement in Pig Pen on Instagram, writing: “A FEW OLD FRIENDS GOT TOGETHER A COUPLE YEARS AGO AND WROTE AND RECORDED 10 SONGS OVER 2 DAYS.

WE JUST WANTED TO HANGOUT AND SEE WHAT’S UP.” “Just when you thought I couldn’t possibly join ANOTHER band,” MacNeil wrote on his Instagram. “WE GO AND START PIG PEN.” Most people start bands when they have little else going on.
