From Terry Byrnes of Qwincy Music Group: Even the most cursory listen to Matt’s body of songs is enough to convince that here is someone who has found his own voice and terrain. His songs move from keening acoustic sparseness to free wheeling new world folk and mini-rock symphonies. His lyrics evoke emotional shades of prime Nick Drake and Jeff Buckley whilst remaining grounded in their own unique sensibility. His voice carries a bitter-sweet edge that swoops and soars. Over the last two year Matt has been working intensively with Qwincy Music Producer and composer Phil Rigger on writing and recording his startling debut album Lilies On Venus. The result is a deeply realised collection of twelve songs that announces the arrival of a major new talent on the musical horizon. Matt is currently playing a limited number of live shows around Sydney while he prepares to make a video clip and promote the Australian release of Lilies On Venus in the second half of 2011.
