Matt Woosey returns to The Stables on Wednesday (November 28).
Matt has previously played here as a solo artist but moved to Germany a couple of years ago where he has joined forces with some German musicians and will be touring and promoting his new live album.
Matt is a man in motion, an artist who slips the creative handcuffs of the modern industry, a trailblazer with no reverse gear, a guitar visionary whose palette bleeds into folk, rock, ambient and electronica. “You’ve gotto keep progressing,” reasons the singer-songwriter. “Like John Martyn. Like RobertPlant. Like Radiohead…”
From roots in Malvern, that maverick spirit has led the singer-songwriter to high places. Right now, Matt is still riding the momentum from 2016’s Desiderata: the breakthrough eighth studio release that blurred genres from roots to electronica, scored Classic Rock’s album of the month and swept up fans from across the gamutof scenes.

“There’s something about my shows you just can’t put your finger on,” he considers, “We travel to lots of different places in the set. It’s moody, ambient, branches out into atmospheric folk and rock.
"When this group plays my music, you just get lost in it…”
