About Me

Matt Tonks writes and performs songs all over the place. Upside, downside, backwards, frontways, and then some. Syd Green is Matt's right and left hand man, on drums and dobro guitar. Together they create a mesmerising, looping, close to the bone stream of unexpected sound.Matt's first solo album, Synaesthesia, was recently recorded and co-produced by Matt and Syd, with James Fletcher on bass & wurlitzer, in a farmhouse in the Southern Highlands of NSW. 'Synaesthesia' is an independent release through Plugging Holes Records and MGM.A new album is around the corner - catch a sneak peek right here with, well ahh, the aptly titled Sneak Preview...
