About Matthew

If you are looking for a chilled out, easy listening, acoustic vibe for your wedding, then I would love to be a part of your special day!
Guitarist
Liverpool
Public liability insurance of £2 million

I have been a singer/songwriter for almost ten years now, playing my own original music and covers in pubs and clubs when I was younger. I also busk a lot in New Brighton, but I am now taking a more chilled out & easy listening route, as the last few weddings I have performed at loved the vibe! I am inspired by artists like Jason Mraz & Jack Johnson, whose songs I also love performing. I studied songwriting at Bath Spa University so songwriting has always been an important part of my life. I have also written 2 EPs of original music that have been released independently, and this is something I will always continue to do. I also love to learn new music, so I would be open to learn anything for wedding days.

Matty was the perfect addition to our wedding. We had him for our welcome reception and he set the tone beautifully for the day - he is a fantastic singer who also brings personality to his playlist. We would absolutely have Matty play again at any event we hold in the future!

Matthew was a great musician and provided some lovely background music to entertain our guests during the drinks reception. We would highly recommend him for a wedding. Affordable price, reliable and a lovely guy.
