Feel-Good Music and Comedy
During this one-man (and his many instruments) musical comedy show, all you can do is expect the unexpected. One minute you'll be singing along to your favourite songs from Grease, Queen, ACDC and more, the next trying to keep up with Matthew's lightning-speed fingers as he plays versions of popular movie themes and classic songs! Along the way there will be comedy songs, spectacular arrangements and plenty of surprises...

Meet the Act
Making people smile and laugh is the most rewarding part of performing. Sharing my passion for the sillier, birghter side of life drives me to keep putting on shows.
I always say that nobody chooses to play the ukulele, but instead the ukulele chooses them. From a chance encounter with one at school, I quickly fell down the rabbit hole of the music and entertainment industry and now I use it as my weapon of choice for my unique act.
