Matt Creer - new album 'The Leeward Tide'

03 Feb 2015


Local singer-songwriter Matt Creer’s new album of original songs will be released soon. The album 'The Leeward Tide' features a plethora of talented musos from the Island, including folkies such as Ruth Keggin, Katie Lawrence and Malcolm Stitt.

Former student of the Royal College of Music in London, Matt Creer has established himself as an exciting emerging voice on the UK music scene. The Manx singer songwriter’s music merges folk traditions, with warm, rich layered arrangements that has created a sound of his own. Local artist Nicola Dixon provides a beautiful album cover.

Here’s a video of the opening track “North Northwest”.
