Act profile

Formed in 2007, Matonic are a guitar trio based in London.

They gig throughout London and the Southeast but will play wherever they're needed!

All the guys in the band sing, although Matt takes care of lead vocals. Jon is the guitarist and backing vocalist, and Nick is the timekeeper who also takes care of some backing vocals.

They play a very wide range of music from 60s rock / pop classics to current rock and indie hits – check out our repertoire.

We have a top-quality, powerful PA and a range of stage and dancefloor lighting, so we can work in pretty much any venue as a self-contained unit. We can also provide a DJ service before we play and during any intervals.

We supply DJ / background music and lighting for before, between and after the live music as required.

Hi Rick

We recently had one of your bands, Matonick, play at our wedding. They were absolutely fantastic and went down really well with our guests. My sister is due to get married in June and I am helping her look for bands, although she loved Matonick she wanted a different band for her wedding. There are two other bands on your website that we liked the look of, Lucas and The Bluejacks. Wedding Enquiry Sept 2010

Hi Matt

...we are glad you enjoyed the evening, we definitely did and our guests loved you. When we went to pick all our stuff up the next day the wedding coordinator said you were one of the best bands that had played there. I think you may have a little boy wanting to join your band, he had a great time with the inflatable guitar!

Thanks again and we'll definitely be recommending you..

Hi Matt,
Thanks for coming and making the day so enjoyable! We loved it and had great feedback on you guys – sorry it took a while to drag everyone through from the other room and onto the dancefloor, we loved it though!
We will have to come and see you playing again later in the summer to bring back some great memories.
All the best to you all.
Cheers
Rob.
Just to second Robs email, thank you for doing such a brilliant job, everyone loved the music! Rob & I hardly left the dance floor all night.
We look forward to seeing you in action again soon, all the very best.

Hi Matt, Wedding May 2010
We just wanted to thank you again for playing our wedding, you were fantastic and completely exceeded our expectations. I will post something on your website as soon as i have the chance but just wanted to let you know that we had the perfect day and all of our guests enjoyed your set.

Good luck for the future

Katy and Mick Goldfinch.

Thanks for your e-mail - we had a quick break up North for a few days, but are now planning on doing the honeymoon proper in June.

We had a great time at our wedding reception and would like to thank you and the rest of the band for your professionalism and friendliness. We have had many comments from our friends and relatives saying that they very much enjoyed your set, from the range of music played to your guitarist's dazzling solo during 'Freebird'!

Thanks again for your help, we wish you all the best.

Kind regards,
Guy

Wedding of Simon and Rhianon - 23rd May 2009

We just got back from our honeymoon today and I wanted to drop you a quick note to say thanks for last Saturday – you guys were really great, as we knew you would be. Loads of people commented on how good you were (I wouldn't be surprised if you got a couple of bookings from it) and you really managed to get a good mix of oldies and newer stuff to keep everyone happy. So thank you!

If it hadn't been my own wedding (requiring me to spend at least some time talking to my guests, as you'll appreciate) I would have been on the dance floor from start to finish!
Thanks again


"Just a quick note to thank the guys for a thoroughly professional set on Saturday night at our annual dinner and dance.

Hockey Club - Dinner /Dance 4th April 2009

The 100+ guests were highly impressed with the range of songs, both classic and bang-up-to-date, and many remarked on the musicianship of the band.

To have everyone up and dancing by the end was no mean feat and really made the evening a success from my standpoint - the customers were satisfied!"
