Matthew started off writing music for NPLS Spectrum Youth Theatre, which has to date taken 6 original musicals up to the Edinburgh Festival and performed to sell-out venues .He took to writing for himself in 2003 and has developed a style which is a mix of pop, rock, jazz and blues. He currently has about 70 original tracks, and the number keeps on growing! Matthew writes mainly on the piano but he is also a lover of the acoustic guitar, and loves experimenting with new sounds by using loop pedals and samples.Matthew is currently recording his first CD, a collection of 12 self-penned tracks.
