   About Matt Downes
I'm a singer/songwriter living in Stockport. Originally from Leicester, I've been based in the North West since 2006. Have played as a solo artist and also with a few different bands covering rock, indie, funk, acoustic. I enjoy lots of different music, and hope somewhere along the line those influences come through in what I write. I'm currently writing some new acoustic material and hope to get gigging in 2009. I will try and get some new material up online very soon. In the meantime feel free to add any comments on my music, and watch out for upcoming gigs.

If you want to book me for any gigs please message me via myspace and I will message you back.

Hey, hope your good?! We're really busy at the moment preparing for gigs and events in the summer, so apologies for the inpersonal nature of this message! We wanted to let you know that we've got a chance to play at V Festival in August, but to do that we need support from our fans. It takes a few minutes, but if you can support us by registering on here http://roadtov. com/artists/shoshin/ and then become a fan of us, we'd really appreciate it!! Hopefully see you at V in August!!
Big love
