An excellent release" - DJ Mishka "With warm and heartfelt vocals, Welch infuses a heartwarming effusiveness that makes these pressing compositions timeless" - Divide & Conquer Matt grew up in Darwin, the Top End of Australia.

He currently writes songs and collaborates with people all around the world as well as fronting his band, The Good Minus. Career highlights include winning the Judges Award for the Sing Sing East Songwriting Competition. His band's album was also chosen as feature album on Three D Radio and 2Bob Radio.
