Matt Goebel Music

I'm a big believer in tailoring my gigs for the audience: as a solo performer, I can quickly adjust my sound & volume to fit the needs of the room, large or small. Song-wise, I draw on a large bank of artists and genres to fit the mood of the event. I'm very aware that in many instances, my role may be to provide a 'background soundtrack' which allows people to chat, catch up, and enjoy some tunes without struggling to hear the person across the table. In other instances, a higher-energy vibe may be suitable. I can adapt to all scenarios on the fly and adapt to the room.

I am a solo acoustic musician from Novi, Michigan. From a young age, I have always been drawn to music. I started my musical journey behind the drum kit, playing in several different bands, bars & parties at Michigan State back in the 90's. I picked up the acoustic guitar around 2002 and starting playing local open mics shortly after. In 2019, I started playing solo acoustic shows and it has been a blast! I love to play all types of music, and I am always adding new songs to my set lists. Some of my favorite artists to play are: Tom Petty, The Beatles, Zac Brown, Kenny Chesney, The Stones & many more.

I am self-sufficient and have all of my own gear, including PA systems. In instances where the venue does happen to have an in-house sound system, I typically prefer to plug into the venues system, which is often tailored to suit the room. Aside from that, I only need a power source nearby.
