Matt Stevens - July Update

Hi 

Hope you’re good? It’s been busy here. 

I’m very pleased to say I’ve been nominated as a Breakthrough Artist at the Prog Awards. This is how Prog describe it. "They might not necessarily be new bands, but they’re starting to find recognition beyond the record collections of prog fans in the know":

Other bands nominated include Syd Arthur, 65Days Of Static, Animals As Leaders and more. 

Lots of gigs coming up - the london show with Prescott should be good and Eppyfest is an amazing event…
