Matt Evans of Home and Away has spoken up about his passion of music and whether he plans to pursue a career as a singer in the future.
Last year, Matt, a former participant on The Voice Australia, was cast as Theo Poulos on the serial. He was recently nominated for the Graham Kennedy Award for Most Popular New Talent at the Logies, which has previously been won by some big stars in the soap industry.
While he enjoys music, he has expressed reservations about pursuing a full-time career as a travelling musician.
Matt commented in the most recent issue of TV Week: “Since I began acting, I’ve had a lot of fun. It’s a new talent I’m learning, and I’m going along for the journey and loving it, but music has always been my passion.
“I always wanted to be a musician and a performer, so I think I’m open to either.”
While Matt enjoys singing, the prospect of spending a lot of time on the road performing his songs does not appeal to him.
“I’m not really sure how keen I am on the idea of being a touring artist,” he explained.
“I’m really unsure about the whole thing, but I think there’s kind of a beauty in that where I can just be open-minded and take whatever comes my way.
“It sounds really silly when I say it out loud but I always have this fear of the music industry where I think I’m getting too old to break through,” he added.
Matt recently had the opportunity to demonstrate his musical abilities as part of a Home and Away plotline, when Theo wowed Chloe with a song during a picnic together.
