Born in Kingston, Jamaica, Tony Matterhorn was drawn to the sound system and selector business in high school, and soon after made a name for himself as part of King Addis, particularly his ability to deliver an energetic and exciting live show. Performing in clubs all over North America, Matterhorn’s style of hardcore dancehall won him accolades, including a victory at the dancehall World Cup in 2000. He broke through to mainstream American audiences in the summer of 2006 with his massive hit “Dutty Wine,” which was heavily played on R&B and rap stations around the country.
