About
I’m Matthew Louw, a Durban-based music professional and educator who enjoys bringing energy, structure, and real results to every production, lesson, performance. With years of musician experience across KZN, I’ve built a strong foundation in playing multiple instruments and supporting live music with reliable, detail-focused musicianship.
I teach guitar and piano to learners of all ages at music tuition schools, and I also manage and perform as part of bands like WahWah Baby. I’m organised, client-focused, and quick to learn—whether I’m coaching students, handling bookings and finances, or collaborating with others on stage and in rehearsals.
