Matt Gwilt’s debut album A Front for Something is OUT NOW!! 

Alt electronic artist Matt Gwilt is a new name but no stranger to the music business. As a founder member of legendary Leeds band The Sunshine Underground (TSU) he toured incessantly and helped build the reputation of one of the great British alternative / electronic bands. When the band split amicably in December 2016 after ten years and four albums, Matt took some time out and hung up his drumsticks for a while to reflect. 

The urge to write and perform was not lost though, momentum picked up during the lockdown and Matt began to buy equipment again and write from his base in Manchester. This time though he was writing on his own, retaining the electronic sensibilities of later TSU work but with a maturity and emotional sensibility that is very much his own. Also, most significantly and for the very first time, he is singing lead vocals.

In the early-mid 00's me, Mul and Ric made a band... The KBC. Over the next 10 years or so we played all over the UK, Europe and Japan. Never quite cracked it but had a fucking great time trying. Signed to an independent label High Voltage in the UK founded by the legendary Richard Cheetham, and Fabtone Records in Japan - big up G-San. Released a couple of albums and EP's and several singles in the process. Everything is on Spotify/Apple Music etc... but a handful of my favourite demos that never made the cut can be found here. Enjoy!! MB.
