Matt Bradshaw

Matt quit half-way through an Economics degree to pursue his dream(?) of becoming a full-time muso.

Not wanting his parents to find out about this flight of fancy, he continued to travel forty-five minutes to uni everyday… whereupon he would sit in his car, teach himself to play guitar & sing, and then return home.

Matt spent quite some time working a job by day, and playing his songs in a 3-piece band by night, until he realised he could earn more money, and drink more (free) beer by playing covers. uh-oh!

His solid reputation as one of Adelaide's loudest singers saw him asked to front coverband Brother to Brother in China and the Middle East, which he did for the next few years before moving to Melbourne in 2000.

Matt plays a bunch of instruments, and over the years has sung on, played on, and written for some eight CD releases. He also has a publishing deal with Sony Asia for songs he has written and performed in Mandarin.

:Discography:

The artist formerly known as eccentric now performs regularly on Good Morning Australia, writes backing tracks for bands & theatre shows, writes music for other artists and performs live in venues in and around Melbourne with various bands.

Matt also produces demos for himself and others from his project studio (in which the Tumble Down single was recorded), plays other people's songs for money, and occasionally plays his own songs for substantially less money.
