Music

Matt’s debut instrumental album is a fusion of his musical influences, featuring a blend of jazz, classical and film music. ‘The Path’ is available to stream or purchase on all major platforms.

“The alternating fives and sixes of ‘First Light’ woke me like an invigorating shower.”

“Listening to ‘The Path’ was a very moving experience. The compositions have a very natural sense of balance and introspection”
