During the winter months Matt has been busy working away in Leeds recording his debut studio album entitled "Artista Callejero" with producer Steven Priddon. The album features 18 pieces and 45mins of classical guitar music and the title literally translates as "Street Performer", a reference to Matt's experience of busking in sunny Stratford-upon-Avon in 2011.
With the album artwork completed and a set of stylish vinyl look CDs selected, all that remains os to finish off some mixing and mestering before they will be ready for sale at £10 each. Keep your eyes peeled for the release date!

Matt has recently been featured in a short film project entitled "Motion Becomes Music" by Ian Leslie-Miller.
The project takes a look at a small number of street performers in Henley Street (the site of Shakespeare's birth place) and Bancroft Gardens in Stratford, with a close focus on the origin of sound production on each instrument featured.
