Matt Wilde - Who Cares (Single)

'Who Cares' is lifted from Matt Wilde’s debut album ‘Hello World’ via Band on the Wall Recordings (the record label imprint of Manchester's renown music venue). Matt has been steadily gaining support from the likes of Jamie Cullum, Gilles Peterson, Jazz FM & many more. With his name firmly cemented as one to watch in the Jazz / Beats landscape, ‘Hello World’ promises to be his most expansive body of work to date.

The initial key flourishes of first single and LP opener ‘Who Cares’, ‘Hello World’ embeds the listener in a technicolour world of rich melodies, crisp instrumentation and meditative grooves. The relationship between Matt and Band On The Wall is a true family affair, reaching all the way back to Matt’s teenage years, where he attended their music outreach programme whilst searching for his first musical steps after his family immigrated from Poland. The release of ‘Hello World’ is the culmination of a beautiful full circle moment, showcasing what can be achieved when community and creativity is given a space to grow organically. 

Alongside making music, Matt has significant experience in the charitable sector, having founded the UK’s first youth - led charity Blaze Arts in 2015 which aimed to develop the next generation of creative producers, being the youngest ever individual to undertake the Clore Fellowship Programme, being a former trustee of Manchester concert hall The Bridgewater Hall and a current trustee of Manchester music charity Brighter Sound.
