VIDEO FRIDAY — THE SIGNS — Matt Berry Live @ O2 Islington Academy, London 5/18/2013
Another track from Kill The Wolf. It kinda sounds like that song from AD/BC that the innkeeper and his wife have where he’s telling her to kick out her mom. This persons coverage of that gig is fabulous!!! If you haven’t gone to the you tube page and thanked this person for their great work, you should! (epidemic271)
FABULOUS photos from that London gig!!!!! The thing I love about him is that he meets everyone after EVERY gig! Who does that, really???
So I’m just a *wee* bit obsessed with Snuff Box, Matt Berry and his music. As a result, I made a Snuff Box inspired illustration. Huzzah.
*I didn’t create the rope wallpaper behind them, just edited the color. The original pattern is called “Ropes” by Dan Funderburgh

It’s almost like he’s in some fervent musical worship! Is it wrong I want to worship his hair!?
That’s what it’s like when you’re in the moment. The music plays you. It’s a great thing and a beautiful thing to see especially on him! Oh and that hair……yesss!

From Mark Morriss’ webpage…
“…I then took a break from my duties as Britain’s #1 ex-frontman, and provided rhythm guitar and backing vocals with The Maypoles, the touring band of Matt Berry (telly, radio, all that jazz) on a tour in support of his brilliant new Kill The Wolf album.”

MATT MUSIC MONDAY — MEDICINE LIVE AT O2 Islington Academy 18/05/2013 (by epidemic271)
A great gig video from Matt’s Saturday night gig. This looked like a pretty great tour. Thank God some of the gems were documented for those of us who couldn’t be there. One day I hope to actually be there to see Matt perform.

EXCELLENT!!!
Matt Berry says people often mistake his gigs for a comedy music act.
Comedian and actor Matt, who starred in The IT Crown and The Mighty Boosh, is also a successful musician but finds fans of his acting work don’t realise that his singing is a separate project.
He said: “It’s definitely Matt Berry playing songs from my album, trying to get it done right and making sure things go well. So no, not consciously, I don’t have to become a character, and it’s not a comedy gig, that is a misconception about my music.
“There are no sly winks or nods, and it’s all done for love.”
Matt, who is currently touring his fourth album Kill The Wolf, said he doesn’t see some of his more unfashionable musical tastes as guilty pleasures.
“Someone was telling me recently that I’ve made an album which references their guilty pleasures, like prog rock and old psychedelic folk. Well, I don’t feel guilty about any of this, I don’t care who knows that I love all that sort of music.”
:: Kill The Wolf is released on June 17. Matt Berry is currently touring the UK. For more information, go to www.themattberry.co.uk
