JAILHOUSE CONCERT SERIES 2026 featuring MATT JOE GOW – 4pm SHOW
Irresistible. Captivating. Unforgettable.
From large festivals to boutique gatherings, from supporting Chris Isaak to Justin Townes Earle, Matt Joe Gow has built a reputation as an earnest performer to go alongside the authentic alt-country tones. Receiving his second consecutive Music Victoria Award for his album Between Tonight & Tomorrow—which charted on both the ARIA and Australian Independent charts—the 2023 New Zealand Country Music Award winner and critically acclaimed musician captures barroom Americana with a confiding closeness.
When Matt Joe Gow sings, everything else stops, such is the power of his voice and his songs. Those songs have won awards, from Music Victoria Country Album of the Year (twice) to a New Zealand Country Music Award, with nominations and chart positions along the way.
Few artists have that combination of indelible songwriting and an extraordinary voice, along with the commitment to create better art each time and bring it to the audience so they have a transformative live experience. Matt Joe Gow is one of those few. Having recently stepped back from the stage to focus on writing his new album whilst producing other artists, Matt’s upcoming 2026 shows mark a unique and special opportunity to reconnect and see him perform live once again.
