Choral Director: Laurie Walker
Guitarist: Matthew Webster
The Avalon Singers are delighted to have Matthew Webster add his expert guitar playing to our performances again this season. He first joined us last season and wowed us with Bohemian Rhapsody and the rest! We're certain you'll be as impressed as we are. What we know: Matthew’s parents were both teachers at the Conservatory here in Victoria, so he was fortunate to receive excellent training at a young age. He’s also been singing (Christ Church Cathedral Boy’s choir and Bastion Theatre musicals) since he was a young lad. He started playing guitar as a teenager, mostly just to accompany his singing, but then took on lead guitar in a 6-piece horn band (Brass Tower) and ended up touring in various bands across Canada for over a dozen years. Nowadays, he volunteers at various seniors homes playing a variety of jazz standards, etc. and did we already mention that he plays for the Avalon Singers too!
So pleased to welcome our VAMC friends back once again
