   About Matt Marriott








For the last 13 or 14 years, I have devoted countless hours to my many many guitars - from the early days learning the riffs of Nirvana and Megadeth, into the world of Satriani and Vai, the blues infused solos of Gary Moore and Stevie Ray Vaughan, then into the acoustical realms of Gordon Giltrap, Paul Simon, Eric Roche and beyond!
By day, I work 3 days a week in my local music shop Hardy Smith Music, and give guitar lessons to pupils from both Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire!
By night, I can be seen performing across the country, either in pubs and bars or at the various guitar shows with Cort.
I also perform and record with the extremely talented bassist (and former Saturday lad) Dave Tryner, who is also a Cort endorsee.


For any enquiries, or if you are interested in ordering a copy my first cd Red Train A' Comin', please send an email to mattmarriottacoustic@gmail.com For cd enquiries, please quote "CD" in the subject title

hey matt
(about the bulletin)
i dnt know the guitarists name but he does have good neck control.
i agree with the mistakes after
listening to it i have found that some of the solo that he does play doesnt neccessarily go with the voice of the song

Hey Matt

Thanks for the request, and youtube also

Great stuff, i was going to do a gig for Brian but had some hand trouble for about 7 months, never been to that end of the country as of yet so if he wants to put on a guitar night or something send a nudge from me;)

I'm sure our paths will cross sooner or later

Take care
