Matthew Quilliam Music
My shows span the genres and eras, meaning there is always something for everybody. As a singing ukulele player, my act stands out as we take a trip through the worlds of jazz, pop, country, folk and musical theatre. Ukulele is my main instrument, having completed my degree on it in 2023, which I can play as sensitively or as energetically as is needed.
It is always important to read the room and allow the audience to guide the show. Whilst I do have pre-arranged set lists, I am always looking to see how people react to different styles and am happy to adapt the following songs to fit accordingly. Whether residents want to relax, sing or dance, whether they prefer the earlier jazz of the 20a-40s or the rock and roll of the 50s and 60s, I am capable and happy to oblige.
In 2019 I went on an extensive solo UK tour, visiting many homes as I went. I can safely say that, having performed in venues from London to Manchester that I am always able to provide something unique, something that stands out and is quite memorable.
I am based in near Farnborough, Hampshire, looking to expand my current range of homes to bring music and happiness to more of those who need it the most.
