August 1, 2024Matt performed at our country club and was professional and extremely easy to work with! He sang the classic Big Bands and the members had a wonderful evening. I would recommend Matt for your next event.

Thank you Terri! I didn’t get a chance to meet Ryan, but Analysa personally thanked me before I left. She seems like a great girl. Glad to be a part of her big day!

October 25, 2017Matt did an outstanding job! He arrived prepared and on time, and performed exactly as advertised. I was a little nervous because I've only ever hired people I knew in the past, and this was my first booking with gigsalad, but it went very well. I missed a good portion of the actual singing while managing other parts of the event, but our guests had nothing but good things to say. Thank you!

August 21, 2017Matt was exceptional - I can't even put into words how wonderful he was for our wedding. Communication leading up to the event was easy and he was always quick to respond. At our wedding, he was professional and did so well reading the rooms mood. So many people, including the restaurant staff, complimented how great he was. I highly, highly recommend you, Matt, for any event! Thank you for making our night!

Matt's performance type varies depending on what his client is after. It can be a show from 15 minutes to 1.5 hours long that includes some audience participation and a bit of comedy, or it can be just a nice selection of songs for listening enjoyment while dining, mingling, or dancing. Whatever the performance type is, you can be assured Matt will exceed your expectations and have your guests asking where you found him!
Matt Walch is an exceptional singer from Michigan, performing throughout the country, including Bal Harbour, Scottsdale, Palm Springs, Long Island, and Martha's Vineyard. Performing professionally for about 20 years now, Matt has wowed a wide variety of audiences across the nation. His music consists of the classic standards recorded by Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Nat King Cole, Michael Buble, Elvis, Bobby Darin, and other greats, sounding so close to the original, audiences often wonder if he's actually singing.
In September 2008, Matt performed with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra, conducted by the great Buddy Morrow! Matt has opened for the Glenn Miller Orchestra, and almost went on a year long international tour with them, but could not commit to staying with them longer, so they decided to go with someone else for the time being.
For over ten years Matt has been performing for company parties, Anniversaries, Weddings and Receptions - "a perfect blend for coctail and dinner hour", Birthdays, Festivals, Holiday shows, and Dinner entertainment at fine restaurants. Not once has an audience or client been disappointed in Matt's performance!
LET'S PUT ON A SHOW!
Matt loves to put on shows. If your company or group is looking for some entertainment full of great music, and a bit of comedy and audience participation , look no further! Matt also provides a nice sound system to fit the venue, so you know it will sound good.
TIGHT SPOT - SMALL ROOM?
Are you looking for someone that is able to fit in a tight spot for a show or cocktail/dinner entertainment? With a one man show and great little sound system, that is no problem.
SIX PEICE BAND
Okay, you want something bigger. How does a six piece band consisting of piano, trumpet, trombone, bass, sax, and drums, dressed in tuxes and playing the old Big Band songs sound? Still able to fit in a fairly small area, this band can accompany Matt and play songs like "Tuxedo Junction", "In The Mood", and more!
If you want quality entertainment for your next event, BOOK MATT WALCH!
"Matt is GREAT!! I've heard him with my group, the TOMMY DORSEY ORCHESTRA
Whatever you need he has it!"
Sincerely,
Buddy Morrow
Tommy Dorsey Orchestra Director
Matt Walch provides a great sound system properly sized for each venue. You can expect to hear many compliments on the quality of sound. The only thing that is required from Matt is a nearby outlet to plug into. Since venue sizes can vary greatly, so do the setups Matt can use. For a very small venue, Matt can squeeze into a tight spot with a compact high end sound system and still sound great. Whatever the setup may be, you can expect Matt to arrive early and be ready before guests arrive.

One show in particular would be seeing Tony Bennett live at the Soaring Eagle Casino in Mount Pleasant, Michigan. He had the audience in the palm of his hand!
Matt Walch supplies all sound equipment.
Matt has appeared on JTV’s LIVE talk show many times, with rave reviews, and we have filmed his performances at other local attractions and community events. Matt is a very engaging performer with a fabulous Frank Sinatra / Harry Connick sound. He is awesome at singing “the standards” and just about anything else…and has a fun and entertaining show. His act is first class!
