Known for his acerbic observations and a delivery so blunt it could leave a bruise, he doesn’t just tell jokes, he tells it like it is.Matt has earned rave reviews for his "no-nonsense" approach to stand-up at festivals across the nation as one half of Indigenous comedy show 'Aborigi-LOL‘. Acerbic, direct, and perpetually annoyed, he’s become a staple of the Queensland circuit by turning his grievances into gold. This is a man who’s made being cranky an art form.“As soon as I got there Tony greeted me and my partner with a hilarious joke/rip at me which my girlfriend loved. After that it was non stop relatable laughter which I really loved.” – TomWith only 60 seats, every laugh feels close.
