Matt Wills isn’t like the rest. While he sharpened his lyrical barbs in freestyle rap battles as a teenager, he cites the likes of Ben Howard, the 1975, Jamie T and The Kooks as his main influences. Lyrically, he’s a songwriter who pours romance and vitriol into his songs in equal measure. Musically, he’s an artist who likes to flex sonic boundaries, seeking out an eclectic range of studio collaborators and offbeat soundscapes.

 

This approach has certainly won Matt some influential fans. His last release, The Hurricane EP, featured production from Mad Decent’s Daktyl and guest vocals from Grime stalwart, Devlin; was championed by Scrillex and was dubbed ‘a mark of its maker’s broad horizons’ (Red Bull).

If The Hurricane EP was a statement of intent then Set You Free is a statement of musical maturation and lyrical force from an exciting talent who’s proven himself to be one to watch out for.
