Services Description

Matthew's high-energy sousaphone style is perfectly suited for a brass band performance, especially when some light choreography is called for. He's comfortable playing a variety of genres, from a traditional marching band to an electronic rock band, whether that means sight reading charts, memorizing parts or improvising a walking bass line.
