Matt Maltese Tickets

Smooth and simple, South London-based singer-songwriter Matt Maltese is described as one of the leaders of schmaltzcore, a “new wave of crooners bringing soft-pop to adoring adolescent fans" according to NME.

Maltese is most well known for his wry modern ballads, specifically for his breakout hit “Even If It’s a Lie,” a heartbreaking song about unrequited love, and his most-streamed song, “As the World Caves In,” an apocalyptic love song. His lyrics discuss topics such as politics, love, and everyday life in a lyrically basic style with matching instrumentals. Moving from grandiose melodies in his early singles to sharp, witty jabs at himself in his debut album, Bad Contestant, to a sensitive, insightful dialogue in “Krystal,” Matt Maltese’s music is everchanging to the singer’s life and current situation.
