Duke of George presents

Matty T Wall Band featuring Steve Judd

From sweet blues to gritty stomping blues beats, Matty T Wall returns to the Duke Of George stage with a special guest on the drums, none other than Steve Judd, from the world-beating prog-rock outfit Karnivool, ready to absolutely tear the house down.  This will be a behemoth of sound coming off the Duke Of George stage as Matty, Steve and Leigh Miller on bass bring the energy to Matty’s compositions like never before, along with some well-chosen blues classics that have been given the Matty swagger.

Over the course of his career, Steve Judd has played some of the biggest rock music festivals all over the globe including Sonisphere, Download, Rock Im Park, Rock Am Ring, Roskilde, Lowlands, Greenfield, Big Day Out and Good Things Festival to name a few.

Steve's accolades (with Karnivool) include 2 x ARIA certified Platinum albums, 1 x ARIA certified Gold album, 1 x ARIA charts #1 album, 2 x ARIA top 5 albums and 1 x ARIA award - Best Hard Rock Album (2013).

Whilst Matty T Wall has performed with legends of the contemporary blues scene, like Walter Trout, Eric Gales, Kirk Fletcher, Dave Hole and he gives as good as he gets, bringing the attitude of Perth Blues Rock to the international blues scene.

"Matty T Wall, an extraordinary blues-rock guitar player, singer, songwriter. Echoes & elements of rock from the 60’s, but Wall’s voice hurls it into the 21stcentury, his dazzling guitar licks and solos not of this world. Wall is entitled to a little swagger—he has the chops to pull it off. Extraordinary guitar player. Jazz flavors, soul. Gritty blues-rock, rock & roll, with outstanding musicianship."
