MatyJ + Musician in Melbourne, VIC

SEEKING

ABOUT

Since playing piano from the age of 5 I have played in many, many Perth bands, composed, worked as a band leader and taught not only as a private teacher but as a mentor to classes and larger groups.

I graduated AMEB at the age of 16, and have undergone studies at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts. I have performed on vocals and keys with some of the countries greatest live musicians, and am recently a Melbourne resident.

I had residency and consistent corporate work over the past 7 years in Perth with several different groups. I am currently on keys in a corporate supergroup working around Melbourne; i am willing to do session work and am currently looking to front a second band on Vox.

For a taste of my composition, keys and vocal stylings hit me up on sound cloud or listen to my provided tracks:
