MATT MINGLEWOOD BAND
Minglewood Band is a musical hybrid, a four-member band with one foot steeped in the musical roots of blues and country and the other knee-deep in rock. Matt’s influences and abilities are seemingly endless and his energy to perform is equally as deep. The basis is blues, the premise is rock, the approach – original. The results are straight up and right on.
Minglewood Band comes at you, live, hard and strong. The band members are masters of improv and genre bending and their constant touring has earned them the well-deserved reputation of ‘ down to earth bearers of good will and good times’.
Matt has released 12 recordings and has amassed numerous awards & accolades along the way including:
