About

I have developed my unique solo act through a number of cruise ship contracts, including the Norwegian Jade and Regent Seven Seas Mariner. My setlist includes songs ranging from jazz and classical to contemporary and classic rock. Through the use of my loop pedal or fingerstyle, I give each song a unique flair by playing both the melody and harmony on guitar. As an instructor, I have two and a half years of teaching experience through my position as a guitar/bass instructor at Matt Burk Music Studio in Allen, TX. I teach all ages and skill levels, along with music theory and composition. As a performer, I have played in multiple cover bands and original projects around the Dallas/Ft. Worth area after graduating with a BA in Music from the University of North Texas in 2014. Performing and teaching music has been the focus of my life since graduating high school in 2010. There is nothing else that brings me more joy than making audiences and students happy.

Matt was great! We had so many compliments on the music for our small intimate wedding reception. He played a mix of jazz, classical and classic rock/contemporary and it made for such a cool atmosphere. He was punctual, professional, and went above and beyond to accommodate. Such a nice guy too!!

We hired Matt to perform the music for our wedding ceremony and we are so glad we did! When we requested a song that he didn’t know, he was willing to learn it for us. It really made our day feel extra special. Everyone thought he did a fantastic job.
