Matt Wallis

I’m Matt Wallis, a professional singer, keyboardist, pianist, guitarist and tribute entertainer based in Bournemouth, Dorset, providing live entertainment for weddings, private parties, corporate functions, hotels, golf clubs and special occasions throughout the UK. With many years of professional experience and an extensive repertoire of approximately 3,000 songs, I perform music from the 1950s right through to today’s favourites. What makes my performances different is my combination of powerful live vocals, keyboard, piano and guitar playing, alongside carefully produced backing tracks. From beautiful ballads and classic guitar instrumentals to rock ‘n’ roll, Motown, soul, disco and modern party favourites, I offer something for every audience.

An additional guitarist can be included by arrangement.
