Matt Muldoon is a multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter, and "Hoolymungo" is his first solo project. Matt grew up in California listening to AM Radio in the late 60's and early 70's and watching television shows like Hee-Haw, Andy Griffith, Sonny and Cher, to name a few. His rich mixture of musical influences include "The Estrada Brothers," a Latin Soul band in which his father was the Conga player for several years, to Honky-tonk music blaring out of the Jukebox at the "Cabin Bar," a little Cafe Bar where he and his friends would hang out as kids shooting pool and listening to Commander Cody and Hank Williams Sr. Matt played lead guitar in a California-based Garage Power Pop quartet called "Durango 95" in the mid 80´s. They recorded two records with Earle Mankey (A True Legend) producing. The first EP, "Dreams and Trains," was released on Line Records in Germany in 1987 and on Stonegarden Records in the States the same year. Matt first picked up a Lap Steel while playing with Durango 95. After moving to Germany, he built a Lap Steel which he played at his first paying gig and still has it! He started playing in a country band and soon after a pedal steel guitar found its way to him, a fiddle followed, and so on... All in all Matt now plays Pedal Steel, Lap Steel, Dobro, Guitars, Mandolin, Ukulele, Fiddle and more on "Hoolymungo".
