Some live performance reviews:

"Matt Larsen has insight well beyond his years and delivered eloquent lyrical content with a sensational range and wonderfully textured voice."

Laura Glitsos - X-press magazine

"In his first performance he wowed the crowd full of punters not familiar with original music. His onstage appeal is a credit to him. He knows how to work a crowd with his energy and confident banter. His music is catchy, vibrant and fun."

Monique Boucher - J B O'Reilly's

"Matt's ability to capture a large audience's attention simply with his voice and acoustic guitar is quite staggering. His confidence and skill in performing effortless renditions of popular songs as well as weave in his own quite brilliant original material is very impressive. Matt performed with 650 primary school children at the 2008 Wanneroo Show, and was an inspiration to the kids. So much so that Matt has again been invited to perform at the 2009 Wanneroo Show."
