YORK FIBBERS PRESENTS MATT SCHOFIELD
“Top ten British blues guitarists of all time“- GUITAR AND BASS
“Another level altogether” - MOJO
“In Schofield, the UK has produced the best blues guitarist for decades” - LA DAILY NEWS
“No.1 Blues Album of 2011” - MOJO
“Blues pick of 2011” - BBC RADIO 2
“Guitarist of the year” - BRITISH BLUES AWARDS 2011 & 2010
Now firmly established as the freshest and most exciting blues guitarist to have emerged on the world scene for many years, Matt Schofield’s powerful mix of blues, rock and New Orleans funk is unlike anything else on the block.
He is rated in the top ten British blues guitarists of all time (Guitar & Bass Magazine) putting him in the company of such iconic names as Eric Clapton and Peter Green.
Latest album Anything But Time was MOJO’s No.1 Blues Album of 2011, produced by John Porter, legendary for his productions of Buddy Guy, BB King, Taj Mahal, Keb Mo, Santana and no less than ten other Grammy winning albums (!)
Just thirty four, Matt’s prowess as a guitarist and singer has taken his band to twenty three countries and brought him high praise in the Penguin Book of Blues Recordings as one of only two living British artists to gain a maximum **** rating.
He was also crowned Blues Guitarist of the Year in the 2010 and 2011 British Blues Awards; and scored another distinction joining Buddy Guy, Eric Johnson and Joe Bonamassa on the world’s largest music print publisher, the US-based Hal Leonard organisation; one of the few Brits ever to do so.
For the past two years Matt has toured extensively in the USA and Canada and played blues festivals as far afield as Indonesia, India and Texas, where he headlined the memorial T-Bone Walker festival in T‐Bone’s home town of Linden TX. For any blues-inspired guitarist, a singular honour.
His band comprises long-term compatriot Jonny Henderson (Hammond organ & left-hand bass) and American Kevin Hayes on drums, who has a long list of touring and recording credits including Robert Cray, Johh Lee Hooker, BB King, Albert Collins and Van Morrison.Matt Schofieldblues
