about
The songs on his Small Songs album have come about due to the collaboration and support of the many people who have come to hear the songs of Matt Williamson. Over the last half a dozen years Matthew has been invited into several studios along the eastern side of Australia usually from being heard at blackboard concerts, busking and in more recent times at venues where he has performed. The archive of Matthews songs is now reported to be in the many hundreds, but it is the timeless and profound quality of the songs that has drawn the attention of many in the music industry and within the arts. Matthews songs have been described as pictures painted with a thousand words, drawing a vision of a truly Australian landscape where the issues of cultural and social uncertainty are tackled in songs such as 'old black man', 'bad cousin to my own brother' and 'song from a broken man', in a way that is so personally honest and yet socially accurate that it places Matthew in the same company as 'Woody Gutherie', 'Roy Harper' and 'Archie Roach'.
