Matt Wilde
Manchester-born pianist, producer, and composer Matt Wilde discovered jazz through an unconventional journey. Starting out as a self-taught beatmaker, growing up Matt made tracks for friends in the grime scene before falling in love with jazz through the sample-heavy works of Madlib, J Dilla, and Pete Rock. This led Matt to dig into improvisation and harmony, crafting a sound that bridges jazz, hip hop, and electronic music. Guided by values of accessibility and creativity, Matt has become a key voice in the UK’s boundary-pushing jazz and beats scene, with his music being championed by BBC Radio 1, 2, 3, 6, Jazz FM, Worldwide FM and more. A proud Mancunian with Polish roots, Matt’s values-driven approach reflects his passion for community and empowering others through the arts.
