We absolutely LOVE a Halloween party at Matt & Phred’s, so this year we’ve lined up one of our favourite and biggest bands to party properly. And yes, you can absolutely get dressed up! We certainly will be…
London-based Full Tilt Collective are the perfect Saturday night entertainment, and this will be no exception… Expect powerful vocals, brass a-plenty, and all-round night-long dance-inducing bangers from start to end.
Influenced by the likes of Hot 8 Brass Band, Funkadelic, Toots and the Maytals and Sly and the Family Stone, frontman and founder Nathan Thomas was inspired to start Full Tilt Collective following a road trip from New Orleans to Nashville. Since their debut in 2016, Full Tilt have graced the stage at venues all over London including Rich Mix, The Blues Kitchen and Hootananny Brixton, Pizza Express Jazz Club, Paper Dress Vintage, and Archspace as well as festivals like Isle of Wight, Small World and Sunrise. Having raised the roof of M&P’s to say the least back in February 2020, we’ve been very much looking forward to inviting Full Tilt back to our little jazz club to carry on where they left off.
An ever-growing collective of musicians, any one lineup features lead vocals, guitar, two backing vocalists, two trumpets, two trombones, baritone sax, tenor/alto sax, drums and sousaphone. With members of the Collective including graduates of Guildhall and Trinity Colleges of music, much of the band has a background in jazz music, resulting in bombastic solos to complement their heady riffs and raucous live show.
From some hugely impressive original tunes, to pop and funk classics from across the decades, maybe even to a few fitting spooky numbers… If you don’t already adore Full Tilt, you will after this gig.

Known for effortlessly blending acoustic soul, jazz and hip hop, Gideon has a unique performance style which makes audiences smile and wonder where he’s been all their lives. His songs are thought provoking, amusing, and unlike any you've heard before.
December 2007 was the release date of Gideon’s first single ‘I Want You Around’, a 10″ vinyl released on Get Cape Wear Cape Fly’s label Mannequin Records. It was Xfm playlisted, and breakfast single of the week on Shaun Keaveney’s 6 music show. This was followed by a BBC Maida Vale session with Huw Stephens.
UK Support tours with Dan le Sac vs Scroobius Pip and Jason Mraz followed in ’08 along with appearances at Glastonbury, Bestival, Latitude and several other festivals. ‘Trademark’ featured on Rob Da Bank’s Bestival A-Z compilation.
The people of Britain may not know it yet, but Gideon Conn is one of their national treasures.’ – Scroobius Pip
