Matthew Fagan in “Lord of the Strings”!

Fresh from recording in America Matthew Fagan presents new and familiar works on the 10 String Guitar and Ukulele.

Come and enjoy a vibrant musical journey with the gifted Matthew Fagan who is renowned for his virtuosity and versatility on guitar and always suprises audiences with his original arrangements and modern interpretation with a magical repertoire that crosses from Spanish Classical and Flamenco, Celtic, Latin American World Music, NewAge/ambient, Folk music to Blues, Bluegrass, Rock & Popular Contemporary music

Matthew has toured with an extraordinary array of the world’s greats, including: Natalie Cole; The Original Buena Vista Social Club; Shirley Bassey; Michael Crawford and Billy Connolly. Billy quoted that

“Matthew is the best Guest Artist that I have ever toured with”.

A particular highlight of Matthew’s performance is his virtuosic hit rendition of J.S Bach’s Toccata on Celtic Steel String Guitar which featured as the climax on the final episode on the Australian ABC TV1 Television Production

Hola Maestro, The “Tocata” was a masterpiece: a fusion that leans towards J.S. Bach in one direction ….&Paco Pena in the other!

“Matthew performs with charisma and a gentle humour that people love. He is affectionate with the audience and wins them over with his unaffected charm. He’s a natural”.
