ABOUT MATT: Matt Whitaker first seized a pair of drumsticks at the age of four, when a miniature custom drum kit helped keep him in rhythm as he conquered childhood leukemia. He's been known to drum so ferociously that his hands are raw. For example, he recently sacrificed both hands to the Bamboozle god. Like Michael, Matt also has several acting credits on his resume, and occasionally plays keyboards.
