The band members are 2nd- and 3rd-year students at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire and have compiled a set comprising mainly of compositions written either by themselves or by contemporary jazz musicians, and naming as influences artists such as Dave Holland, Kenny Garrett, McCoy Tyner, Chad Leftkowitz-Brown, Christian Mcbride and Kenny Wheeler.

Although still students the various members of Matt’s quartet have already clocked up valuable performing experience working at the Montreux, Vienna and Nashville Jazz Festivals and performed under legendary band leader Mike Gibbs. Please join us for what promises to be an evening of exciting new music in the company of some already very accomplished young players.

Expect a dazzling display of contemporary fare, ranging from Turkish panache to soundscapes of latin America to English pastoralism. Hear this played on nylon string, steel string, electric, 12 string, fretless, slide, guitar-synth, glissentar guitars and more!

​For their live gigs, the Oxley-Meier Guitar Project aim to entertain by playing with a spontaneity and an intuitive interplay between them that keeps them fresh and fired up from gig to gig. The duo therefore comes to the performance with what they hope are the audiences anticipations: to expect the unexpected!
