Director and Musician

Mr Matthew Hamilton
(BMus, BTeach, GradDip PR)

Professional musician, Matthew Hamilton (Bachelor of Music, Bachelor of Teaching (Honours) and Graduate Diploma Public Relations), has Public Relations postgraduate qualifications and experience.  He has over 15 years experience in the music and entertainment industry as a trombone player, participating in a range of large and small corporate events, weddings, and festivals.

Matthew’s area of expertise is finding exactly the right music for your event.  His specialty is understanding the music behind the band and developing this with client needs.

Matthew noticed a lack of music professionalism in bands he played with at many corporate events and weddings.  Many players were not professional, were unrehearsed and didn’t have any sheet music.  Soul Story only uses the skills of the best musicians who deliver top quality music.
