“Special Patrol Group ... A band that seems this close to absolute brilliance: counterintuitive, imaginative song structures, catchy tunes, smart lyrics, excellent musicianship and a (sometime) frontwoman with one of the most compelling voices in town.”

- SPG’s 3 Song EP, “Completes One Task”, on myspace and in its EPK
- Read the review from Lucid Culture.
Formed in 2005, Matthew writes the songs, SPG arranges, we rehearse, we gig, we record. Our melodies may remind you of Elvis Costello, or Belle and Sebastian. Our vocal harmonies are inspired by the likes of Brian Wilson and the Zombies. Our music is elegant like these artists', but more raw and elemental. We hit it hard, both live and in the studio.
