Matt Wigler, 15-year-old piano sensation from Ellicott City MD, brings his blend of blues, jazz, and boogie woogie to the Rehoboth Beach Bandstand. Matt has played at festivals across the U.S. and in Canada, including the Monterey Blues Festival (CA), Cincy Blues Fest (OH), Artscape (MD) and Beaches International Jazz Festival (Toronto). Matt has shared the stage with Buckwheat Zydeco, Deanna Bogart, Marcia Ball, Tommy Castro, Tab Benoit, and others. Matt has also opened for blues guitar greats Buddy Guy and Joe Bonamassa. Next year, Matt will be featured in a documentary on blues pianists that will be broadcast on PBS stations nationwide. Matt's debut CD, Thirteen, was produced by Deanna Bogart and released June 2007. It has received rave reviews and is being played on radio stations throughout the US and Europe. The Baltimore Sun calls Matt's music "foot-tapping, head-swinging, blues jazz fusion". "No matter if it's jazz, funk, or gut bucket ragtime, Wigler has a firm grasp on playing it right" according to BluesSource.com. Come see why this 15-year-old has been called "a sensational keyboardist for any age" (Blues Society of Tulsa).
