Matt began improvising while at college and was lucky enough to have had a piano teacher who encouraged this. At university, he played both solo and with other musicians at both college and city venues. He began songwriting in the 2000s and then, in earnest, at the start of the first national lockdown. He plays songs with lyrics (both originals and covers) and original improvisations (usually instrumentals). Visit his website at www.mattekinsmusic.com .
