Timeline
Matt Ellis (born 28 December 1973) is an Americana genre singer-songwriter from Sydney, Australia.
Inspired by punk and rock bands of his high school era, Ellis formed heavy-rock band Sedgwick Pie in 1995.
With him as their frontman, the group released two EPs, touring with such prominent 90s acts as Reef (UK), Grinspoon (AUS) and Tumbleweed (AUS), before launching his solo career in 2000 with his critically acclaimed debut, Peel.
The release quickly established Ellis on an international stage, with the album sitting in the top 10 on ninemsn for six weeks.
The self-produced music video for the title track "Peel" gained airplay on Foxtel's Country Music Channel, MTV Australia, Rage and defunct late-night TV show on Network Ten, Ground Zero.
The track was added to rotation in southeast Asia, but was eventually banned after outraged viewers called in to complain that the clip – which featured Ellis driving around Sydney blindfolded – promoted reckless driving.
The banning sparked an invitation from Channel V Asia for Ellis to interview and perform live at the station in Hong Kong.
This performance wrapped the Peel tour which saw Matt Ellis perform at respected rock music venues CBGBs (New York City) and the Knitting Factory (Los Angeles).
As a preview to the forthcoming album, a double A-side single of "In This Life"/"Where It Starts" was launched in August 2003 at Sydney venue The Gaelic Club.
Along with more critical acclaim the release also attracted a sponsorship from Cole Clark Guitars Australia.
Tracks from the album received airplay on Triple J, Sydney's FBi Radio, Newcastle's New FM, 2NUR and many stations Australia-wide.
The album also received airplay on college radio in Germany, Canada and the US.
In July 2004, Ellis launched his second, self-titled solo effort at the Vanguard in Sydney.
The production team on this album consisted of Ellis and longtime musical collaborator, Tamlin and ARIA Music Awards winner, Jonathan Burnside.
Based in the U.S. since 2005, Ellis just released a new single, "Coming Back".
Matt Ellis had an international upbringing, spending his childhood among Sydney's northern beaches, Melbourne, Brisbane, Australia and Wellington, New Zealand before his family's relocation to Hong Kong,– where he spent most of his teenage years attending Island School.
Ellis returned to Sydney for his final year of High School, graduating from Davidson High School (New South Wales), before studying Art & Design at College.
In 2005, Ellis left Australia and embarked upon a tour across Canada and the US which included shows in and around Vancouver, Hornby and Denman Islands and at the North by Northeast (NxNE) Festival in Toronto.
He stayed on the road through July and August playing a twenty-date acoustic tour through New York, Pennsylvania, Toronto, Vancouver, San Francisco and Los Angeles.
While on the road he began writing his next release, Tell the People.
Writing for the album was completed and a demo was recorded while in creative seclusion in a remote, coastal village in Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula.
Returning to Los Angeles in 2006, Ellis collaborated with fellow musician Branden Harper to produce his third solo album, Tell the People.
Recorded at Veneto West Studios in Culver City, California and engineered by Ronan Chris Murphy, the album featured a stellar cast of musicians.
The recording sessions included Nels Cline (Wilco) and Tim Young (David Sylvian, The Youngs ) on guitar, Greg Leisz (k.d. lang, Beck, Joni Mitchell) on lap steel, pedal steel and mandolin, Tim Luntzel, (Bright Eyes, Norah Jones, Emmylou Harris) on bass, Dave Palmer (Fiona Apple, Air) on piano and Rhodes and Branden Harper on drums.
Ellis' wife provided vocals on tracks 10 and 11.
In promotion for this well received and critically acclaimed album, Ellis performed across the US, with regular shows at such esteemed Los Angeles music venues as the Hotel Cafe and The Troubadour.
He returned to his homeland twice off the back of the album, playing both Brisbane and Sydney, Australia.
Ellis took to the Little Radio stage at South by Southwest, playing multiple days in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010.
Ellis' fourth album, Births, Deaths & Marriages, was released in March 2010.
Vocals and acoustic guitar were recorded in a Venice Beach loft with drummer Branden Harper once again.
The laid-back recording environment suited the songs, and Ellis, perfectly, sometimes capturing and keeping a song played in full for the first time.
Over several months, special guest musicians were brought in, adding layers to the songs note by note.
Calexico's Nick Luca added further electric guitars, piano and Fender Rhodes while his Calexico bandmate Jacob Valenzuela rounded out two songs with trumpet.
This album is inspired by Ellis' travels across the south and his love for the Mississippi Delta region.
There was a surprise performance by gospel great (who sang the duet "Gimme Shelter" with Mick Jagger on the Let it Bleed album), Merry Clayton.
Ellis mixed the album with Craig Schumacher (Calexico, Devotchka, Iron & Wine, Neko Case, Richard Buckner) at his WaveLab studios in Tucson, Arizona.
The lead single, "Heart of Mine", was featured on Andrew Zimmern's Appetite For Life and received an Honorable Mention in the International Songwriting Competition in the Americana category.
"Heart of Mine"'s music video, directed by Ellis, took home third place for Best Video in 2010.
Tracks from Births, Deaths & Marriages have received wide AAA radio airplay across the US, including LA's KCSN, operating out of Northridge, California.
