MatteTurtle + Musician in Woodstock, ON

SEEKING

ABOUT

Hello!!

My name is Matt, I'm 28 and living in Woodstock, Ontario, Canada. Just your average bedroom musician looking for some people to jam with and perhaps start a project. I've played legitimate gigs, both as a solo act and full band. I am a guitarist first and singer second lol but I don't mind being lead on the mic. I also play drums and bass and little bit of keys. Ideally looking for some people around my age who would be willing to commit to writing and performing music in the Southern-Ontario area. Just for fun, but also committed. Mainly looking to start some sort of heavier rock based music (Post-Hardcore, punk, grunge style project) But I would also be into something lighter, indie/alternative type of music. Check out my solo work on Spotify/Apple music under "Matte Turtle" and also follow/message me on gram MatteTurtleMusic for quickest response.

Cheers!
