Matt Benson is a multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter from Rostrevor, Co. Down, Northern Ireland. After touring the world for almost eight years as trombonist with George Ezra, including Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage, Benson stepped into the spotlight in 2025 with his debut album Sit Back Down Again. A soul-soaked blend of vintage R&B, New Orleans brass and cinematic storytelling, the record has racked up over 150,000 Spotify streams, earned five-star reviews and praise from Ezra himself. A warm-voiced, engaging storyteller with an enduring sense of humour, Matt brings his songs to life at the piano and trombone, selling out venues and winning hearts wherever he plays.
