'Turn Off
Your TV'
OUT NOW

New Single OUT NOW!

Matt's latest single, 'Turn Off Your TV' is now available on all streaming/download platforms. It's a riff-driven anthem sparked by the frustration of seeing lockdown habits — doomscrolling and mindless screen time — continue even after the world reopened. Sharp and energetic, it's layered with harmonies that bring both grit and lift. Recorded and mixed at home, then mastered in Sweden by esteemed audio engineer Joe Vegna, it combines DIY urgency with polished production. At its heart, it’s a rallying cry to switch off, step outside, and reconnect with real life. Click here to check it out!




About

Matt Calderbank’s brand of brand of happy-go-lucky, energetic music, has led to countless gigs across the country, radio airplay and festival appearances. Offering both acoustic and full electric sets, he can provide entertainment for any occasion...

With over two decades of experience in bands and as a solo artist, Matt has built up a versatile set list. Performing anything from Foo Fighters and Fleetwood Mac, to Thin Lizzy and Queen, his collection of rock and pop classics plus his own original music is exstensive. Whether you need high-energy anthems or relaxed acoustic mood-setters, Matt adapts his set to suit every audience.

Bridging the gap between band and solo acoustic performer...

Not only does he play stripped back solo acoustic sets, Matt also performs with an electric guitar and a backing track of bass and drums. This offers the energy of a full band with the versatility of a solo artist, bridging the gap between band and solo acoustic performer. In addition to providing a cost effective alternative to hiring a band, it enables fast set up times and uses less floorspace – great for smaller venues who might not be able to accommodate a full band. It also gives complete control over volume levels – perfect for a venue with noise restrictions. Audiences particularly enjoy the variety that’s brought by splitting the performance into two halves, an acoustic set followed by an electric set.

Songwriting...

Matt’s original music explores a variety of subjects, while his style flirts with multiple genres. An underlying rock quality runs through his songwriting, a reminder of his rock-oriented roots that enhance his unique approach. His releases have found radio airplay around the globe including being performed in live broadcasts to thousands of listeners. You can find his self-penned work on Spotify, Apple Music, and all streaming platforms.

Regardless of venue size, event type or set length, Matt can provide a quote for entertainment tailored to your requirements.
