Matthew Odmark (born Matthew Thomas Odmark on January 25, 1974) is an American musician most known for being a guitarist for Christian alternative folk rock group Jars of Clay.
At times, Odmark's first name is noted as "Matthew" instead of "Matt". Curiously, these occurrences all indicate the group's other guitarist Stephen Mason as "Steve Mason", thus expanding Odmark to his full name, while abbreviating Mason's name.
Matthew Odmark was raised in Rochester, New York, and studied English literature. As a youth he knew pianist Charlie Lowell. When guitarist Matt Bronleewe left Lowell's band Jars of Clay, Odmark took his place as guitarist and backing vocalist.
Matthew Odmark is married to wife, Kristen Odmark. They adopted their son, Dylan Matthew Odmark, in 2007. They adopted another son, Owen Leigh Odmark, in 2009.
