The Mat Walklate Trio
Saturday, 24th August 2024
Exchange Project Stage | 16:00 – 17:00
Performing as a duo on Sunday 25th August, Mat and Alex will take to the Exchange Project Stage on Saturday 24th August alongside James Lawley!
Dynamic and seasoned professionals, they combine their talents to create show-stopping Blues performances.
Both excellent singers, superb instrumentalists and exciting performers – as a duo Mat and Alex have a huge sound, but can also offer a larger ensemble as a trio or quartet.
Taking influence from the likes of John Lee Hooker, Little Walter and R.L. Burnside, their repertoire includes irresistible original material and choice covers.
‘A whiff of Chess Chicago Blues … explosive bottleneck slide… Blues which is still able to surprise – not too swamped with respect, however respectful it is of the masters.’
