Emerging songwriter Al Matcott is hitting up venues across Melbourne, regional Victoria, Sydney and Wollongong on his maiden EP release tour. Formerly a drummer and guitarist/singer in a variety of bands, Matcott finally decided to focus on the twanging, narrative-driven material that continually surfaced during his songwriting process. “They’re all my stories,” he says. “I don’t want to hide them behind anything.”

Matcott’s debut EP You Can Be Anyone, featuring the singles ‘Mediocre’ and ‘Justine’, is out now via Skip Hero Records. Don’t miss your chance to see him and his formidable band playing across the country in December, with support in Beechworth from David M Western.
