Matt Geary Bio:
Matt Geary is of a different ilk skewing the traditional view of the singer/songwriter sat on a bar stool singing love lost laments. The music is a blend of musical genres from indie to folk to drum and bass which create his distinct hybrid sound. Influenced by classic song-writers such as Bob Dylan and Ray Davies, Matt is a diverse and unique song-writing talent who conjures his own musical world of melody in which you are all welcome to delve. Live performances incorporate loop stations, samples, fine artwork and a bit of blag poetry to rifle the ol' troubador scorned.
Alongside Matt there is bowler-hatted drum and bass drummer, Ed Inferno, cellist extrordinaire Mike Nowland and now pianist Jez Diaper.
They have played all over the UK and played with the likes of Rosie Thomas, Nick Harper, John Power, Alabama 3, Shady Bard, Mohair, Red Jetson, The Ivories, Eight Legs, Komakino, Vijay Kishore and Damien Jurado and he has worked with such respected people as Steve Brennan (Dexys Midnight Runners), Andy Wickett (World Service/ex-Duran Duran) and John Rivers (producer of The Specials, Ocean Colour Scene, Paul Weller). .
Combining his heartfelt, honest and distinctive voice with a personal, woven patchwork of lyrics and word play he performs memorable songs of intense beauty, passion and fragility which are "impossible to dislodge once heard." He is an exciting and innovative writer and performer who has a determination to skew the traditional stereotype of a singer-songwriter; he has been critically lauded and cited as an artist to look out for in the future.
The new e.p will be recorded in the very near future under Boy Wonder Records, so keep your eye out for any news. Gig dates will be posted as soon as confirmed.
Temperance by Matt Geary
For chastity laughs on a primrose path
And flesh deems that the line is cast
An admiration is just but just don't lap
Please God now give me temperance
For there's toil on the tether
The weathered leather and lace
Fill the void with a worth that cannot be replaced
A secret revealed that modesty made haste
Tore patience from monument's reverance
For time is a whore it fails to chime
Fails to reason
Fails to rhyme
Yet in a moment all is held sublime
She is God now Give me temperance'
