Event Description
Greenwood Events presents singer-songwriter Scott Matthews for the tour of his critically acclaimed album Restless Lullabies.
Scott Matthews’ ground-breaking debut album, Passing Stranger, earned him serious critical acclaim owing to its bold combination of folk, rock, blues and Eastern-inspired songwriting. In 2007, his first single, Elusive, won the Ivor Novello Award for ‘Best Song Musically and Lyrically’. Scott soon went on to perform on a number of international sell-out tours with renowned artists such as Rufus Wainwright, Bert Jansch, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, Foo Fighters, Snow Patrol and Tori Amos.
His latest album’s acoustic purity creates a subliminal listening experience in which the skeletal delicacy of the songs permits his poetry to breathe, his transcendent vocal to soar, and brings his dexterously sensitive guitar playing into microscopic focus. This work further cements his undeniable status as one of our master songsmiths.
