Matt Cusson, winner of the Maxell Song of the Year, was given this prestigious award in a surprise presentation at the Brian McKnight concert in Dallas. Cusson, a keyboard player and background singer for McKnight, was at a loss for words, but will no longer be at a loss for money or gear, after being presented with a check by the president of Maxell for $20,000! Watch as Matt, his mother, Brian McKnight and Brian Rothschild tell the inspiring story of Matt's musical journey.
