Ever since he first sat at a piano as a boy and began to tentatively craft his own music, Matthew Garrod instinctively understood the long-lasting appeal of honest songwriting and how a distinctive, personalised tune will remain such, regardless of prevailing trends. It’s a philosophy that the Perth singer-songwriter carried into his role as frontman of much-loved city band Oak Tree Suite – who reached the semi-finals of Australia’s prestigious J Music Awards – and, having developed a style that would challenge conventional songwriting through sometimes ambiguous, sometimes universal and sometimes spiritual storytelling, Matthew Garrod approached his solo material in the same spirit.
Producing thoughtful songs that aim to provoke discussion, Garrod’s first release was Bad Memory Blaze, which promptly reached the semi-final of the International Songwriting Competition, evidencing the Australian musician’s potential global reach. Since this achievement, Matt’s single, This Town – the lead track from 2019’s EP ‘Canyons’  – as well as his Dream Team from his 2022 EP Form, Pt. 1 have also reached the same stage of the same celebrated contest, reflecting the unstoppable upward trajectory of this talented artist.
