Matt Buckle, residing in the grey streets of Colchester, delivers soulful and heartfelt material that one would expect of a more travelled musician. Despite his age however, Matt has already earned acclaim in the Essex area- In both his band 'Castaway' and with his solo material. With an instantly recognisable voice, Matt is definitely one to look and listen out for.
