Scott Matthews in Bath October 2018

Scott Matthews first earned critical acclaim with his first single ‘Elusive,’ back in 2007. Elusive’s innovative compounding of folk undertones, Eastern-inspired songwriting and, whirling, emotive lyrics stamped Matthews’ spot on the music scene. 

 

Since, Matthews has toured with the likes of Robert Plant, Foo Fighters and Tori Amos, selling-out international tours and curating an expertly crafted backlog of folk/soft rock sound. This autumn, Matthews returns with his sixth studio album, The Great Untold, and a fifteen-date tour across the UK. 

 

Mostly acoustic, The Great Untold was created last winter at Matthews’ home; a quiet, reflective but abounding release. Accumulating similar guitar tones as his first ever release, the album is stripped back but assured. Though cultivating a sort of reflective sadness, its underpinned by an ethereal optimism; reflected through its controlled crescendos in sound and relatable, lyrical poetry. 
 

Matthews' performance will be supported by fellow songwriter Ady Johnson, who has had large support from BBC 6 Music over the years.
