In 2017, Matthew released his first book, Pieces of Morrissey - a full analysis of his and fellow fans' obsession with the influential singer/songwriter - the book received glowing tributes from the fans and the music world. Successful book launches in Manchester and London proved a huge success and this followed with an invitation to the “Rock and Roll book club” for an interview with a live audience.

Matthew has appeared on numerous radio stations/TV features on The Smiths/Morrissey. And also curated two nights at the British Music Experience – celebrating the music of The Smiths and Morrissey.

Matthew’s series , ‘On the Streets I Ran’ brought wonderful reviews with actors, actresses, musicians and the sporting world all celebrating the series. This led to the former Lord Mayor of Liverpool writing a poem about Matthew and his wonderful words.

‘He narrates and writes with such passion, uplifting many souls. I read Mattys articles which lift MY mind and soothe MY heart.’

Matthews’ work has been published in music magazines with front page interviews and as a music writer has interviewed some of the biggest names in the pop / rock scene including Pete Best, John Power OMD, Midge Ure and Ronan Keating and all across Liverpool.
