Hi, I’m Matt. I’m a solo acoustic musician who sings and plays guitar. I live and breathe music, and love connecting with people through song.
What I Do
No frills, no nonsense solo acoustic music. Discreet background vibes? Chilled Sunday session? Rowdy night at the pub? I’ll make it happen. I’m friendly, affordable, flexible, and dead easy to book.

“Thanks Matt for being a part of my 50th birthday celebrations. I have had lots of great feedback regarding the music you played, great variety for all ages, and how friendly and accommodating you were – it all went too quick for me. I’m thinking I might have a 50 plus 1 next year! If I do I’ll be calling you again. ”
