Matty T Wall Band | 9.00pm
The internationally renowned Matty T Wall Band is back in Perth again for 2025 after European success last year – and in fighting form!
From sweet blues to gritty stomping blues beats, and now having eight nominations in the prestigious Independent Blues Awards in the USA, a WAM Award and three back-to-back Number One Australian Blues albums, this is an artist you do not want to miss. Matty T Wall returns to the Duke Of George stage more motivated and addictively electric than ever bringing his latest Live album and 4th Album - LIVE DOWN UNDERGROUND.
Matty and the band are also bringing to this show a fresh swag of new originals from yet-to-be-released albums, along with tasty blues covers perfect for the southern vibes of the Duke Of George. The band features Perth’s powerhouse rhythm section of Ric Whittle on the drumkit and Leigh Miller on bass guitar for an explosive and extremely dynamic sound.
Matty has crossed paths with legends of the scene, like Walter Trout, Eric Gales, Kirk Fletcher, Dave Hole, Kid Ramos, Danny Bryant and he gives as good as he gets, bringing the attitude of Perth Blues Rock to the international blues scene.
"Matty T Wall, an extraordinary blues-rock guitar player, singer, songwriter. Echoes & elements of rock from the 60’s, but Wall’s voice hurls it into the 21stcentury, his dazzling guitar licks and solos not of this world. Wall is entitled to a little swagger—he has the chops to pull it off. Extraordinary guitar player. Jazz flavors, soul. Gritty blues-rock, rock & roll, with outstanding musicianship." - Martine Ehrenclou, Rock and Blues Muse, Los Angeles USA, Sept 2018
“I'm, sure everyone will love this. The guy is a picker" - Eric Gales
