Matthew John Works is the creative studio of Paul Schottmiller, focused on commissioned remembrance songs that honor a loved one through music, story, and legacy.

Matthew John Works is named in memory of Matthew John, and the studio’s remembrance work grows from a deeply personal understanding that music can carry memory, love, and legacy in a way few other forms can.

Each song begins with a memorial brief and is shaped through conversation, lyric writing, musical curation, and artistic judgment. The goal is not simply to generate a song, but to create a tribute worthy of the life it honors.
