Lochie Matthews

Live looping is the technical core of Lochie Matthews' act, used to stack layers of guitar and voice until the sound reaches well past what one player would normally produce. The set leans heavily on covers that a room already knows, sung and played with a smooth, soulful delivery, alongside original songwriting. Based in Brisbane, Queensland, Lochie Matthews works as a solo act rather than with a backing band, which keeps the booking simple while the loop pedal fills out the arrangement. The approach suits a room that wants familiar songs delivered with a bit more texture than a plain acoustic set.
