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.
