What Matt Wilson & his Orchestra have been up to
Matt Wilson & his Orchestra – Jacques Wait, Phala Tracy and Quillan Roe – are smack in the middle of a recording project where they are producing 12 songs, each one done two different ways. Now after all their shredding, listening back, and microscopic analysis, these four are ready to come up for air and just party in the burbs for one night at Crooners. Come and help them get out of their bleery heads for a few hours on September 10th. 2026. The group will perform all the songs that they’ve been tangling with in the studio, plus some comforting old numbers drawn from Matt’s songbook.
