ABOUT

I moved to Scotland from the US (Maine) in August 2020. I currently live in Carnoustie. I'm an experienced acoustic guitar player who's pretty good at flat picking. I have a pretty good lead voice, and my backing vocals are good if I work on it a bit. I started playing guitar at 15. I've also been playing mandolin for about 10 years and I'm pretty good at that too. I've been writing songs too for many years and posting them on my website www.worldofmatt. I absolutely love trad bluegrass
