A frequent presence in local media, Matthew Jacobson’s work shines a light on the culture and history of Liverpool through his interviews with notable figures such as Eithne Browne, Ronnie Goodlass, Janice Long, and stars of Brookside, as well as countless other creatives in the city. His writing transcends simple descriptions; it evokes deep emotional connections to the city’s landmarks, transforming ordinary streets into symbols of pride, nostalgia, and life.

Critics have lauded his work as “thought-provoking” and “captivating,” highlighting his ability to transport readers through time and emotion. BBC Radio has praised him as an “absolute wordsmith,” and even the former Lord Mayor of Liverpool has publicly acknowledged the profound impact of his writing on the local community.

Matthew’s debut book, Pieces of Morrissey, published in 2017, set the stage for his literary success. The book, a deep dive into the fandom surrounding iconic singer Morrissey, received rave reviews from fans and critics alike, with successful launches in both Manchester and London. His appearance on the “Rock and Roll Book Club” further cemented his position as a distinguished voice in music writing.

Matthew continues to captivate readers and listeners alike, breathing life into the everyday and capturing the soul of Liverpool, making the ordinary extraordinary. His work continues to inspire both locals and visitors, leaving an indelible mark on the city’s cultural landscape.

You can buy the book here.
