Adelaide Fringe Frusic Focus: Matthew Fagan - Lord Of The Strings

"Audiences are surprised by my original arrangements with a magical repertoire to suit all ages with some funny stories in between."

Answered by: Matthew Fagan

Sum up your musical sound in four words? Fiery, exhilarating, virtuosic, diversity. 

Will you do a different show at Fringe or what you'd normally do at regular gig? My show for Fringe has similarities to other performances but has more of a range of genres (classical to rock), instruments (electric guitar, banjo, ukulele) and the new arrangement of Tubular Bells for one.

Reckon you'll head out on the Frusic walking trail (taking in iconic music spots of Adelaide)? Absolutely. Looking forward to immersing myself in the Frusic performances and venues especially the other performances at the GC, German Club where I will be performing.  Looking forward to theatre, comedy and cabaret also.

Why should people come and see your show? Audiences are surprised by my original arrangements with a magical repertoire to suit all ages with some funny stories in between. 

When and where is your Fringe show? The GC at the German Club, 17 - 21 Feb.
