UK’s Matthew Herbert is back in Australia for a show in Sydney and Melbourne. With the imminent release of The Shakes, his first more house orientated material for what seems like forever, the live show will feature 2 singers (Rahel and Ade Omotayo), guitar, keys, a 3 piece horn section and electronics. In fact the band were specifically brought together to showcase his more house material from across his career.
He’s performing next Friday 22/5 at the Prince of Wales in St Kilda. Check here for more details.
Here’s an interview we did back in 2008, at the time of his experiments with big band.
