Matt Schofield Hates Rehearsing

(The Blues) Matt Schofield admits he hates rehearsing - because it offers him the opportunity to cheat rather than give his all. His fifth album, Far As I Can See, was released in February, and he's looking forward to delivering some of his latest tracks during an all-too-brief UK tour in June.

Schofield tells Glide: "I hate rehearsing not being for real - you don't have to be in the moment. At a gig you have to be totally right there, at that second. Without a real show you can cheat it."

He says his desire to communicate with an audience means he's never suffered stage fright - not even at his first-ever show. "The desire to do it far outweighed any thought that I might not be any good," he admits. "It felt totally natural to get together and create with other people."
