About Me



THE MATLOCKS
is all about strong melodies delivered in an old school package spiced up with hot loving and our own Glam-Slam-Rock'n'roll-Commotion! We write songs with live shows on our minds ‘cause that’s where we intend to be the best. Our aim is for every boy and girl in the audience to feel like they’ve attended the best fucking pilsner drenched party ever! That’s why we call it “Pilsner Rock”.

Right now we are working on our first full length album. Thirteen songs of 100 % pure Pilsner Rock for your pleasure. In May we start the recordings and plan to have the record in our hands in the beginning of August. There will be rock!

Later this year we plan to do a short tour through Germany. Do you wish for us to come by your town/club? Send us a message and we’ll see what we can do…

Cheers!
