Scott Matthew


Best known as the composer and performer for most of the music for John Cameron-Mitchell's film cult classic Shortbus. He's also one of Antony Hegarty's favourite singers, opening for Antony & the Johnsons at this year's Montreux Jazz Festival.

His voice has a heartbreaking quality, remarkable in its indolent beauty and emotional range. Sophisticated without ever being clever, his songs unfurl with the naturalness that marks out a master of his craft.
