Feature Artist Matthew John Ellers at Newcastle United Sports Club

Spotlight on Feature Artist Matthew John Ellers

This week at Newcastle United Sports Club, we had the pleasure of shining the spotlight on the incredibly talented Matthew John Ellers. Based on the Central Coast, Matthew performs as a solo artist and also fronts the Fr33 Agents Band, bringing a wealth of experience and genuine passion to every performance.

Matthew treated us to a set of originals that truly captivated the room. His lyrics bounce off melodies in a way that draws audiences in and creates that rare relatable factor that keeps people listening. It’s the kind of songwriting that resonates long after the last note fades.

A True Multi-Instrumentalist

What sets Matthew apart is his versatility as a multi-instrumentalist. On the night, he performed on his 12 string guitar and harmonica, showcasing the depth and texture he brings to his sound. Matthew is also regularly seen on keyboard and electric guitar, giving him a broad musical palette to draw from across his performances.

His repertoire of originals spans decades, reflecting an eclectic range of influences from an impressive group of writers and performers. That breadth of influence comes through clearly in his style – there’s something familiar yet entirely his own about the way Matthew crafts and delivers his music.

If you’d like to catch Matthew at a future gig – whether solo, duo, or with the Fr33 Agents Band – be sure to follow him on his socials to stay up to date with his upcoming shows.
