Matt Bolton is a modern day one-man-band show using live-on-the-spot created loops and technology with a contemporary pop, classic rock, roots-rock vibe and feel. Often with hints of retro electronic, rock, reggae, and funk, he combines guitar, drums, bass sounds, keyboards, synth, harmonica, mic and live vocal sounds to create a full band sound and feel that gets crowds of all sizes up and dancing. Matt picks from a seemingly endless collection of covers and originals to create an unforgettable live performance in which his ingenuity in looping magically reproduces the feel and energy of a complete band with no pre-recorded tracks. Having played in touring bands with some legendary musicians including Todd Rundgren, Jesse Colin Young, Bill Kreutzmann (Grateful Dead). Matt tours extensively (250 shows a year) all around the country with weekly residency gigs while at home in the SF Bay Area.
“I knew Matt was a player – that’s why I hired him. But it wasn’t
until I saw him do his own thing that I realized what an
entertainer he is. Kauai is justifiably proud of this local export.”
– Todd Rundgren
