Space enthusiast, awesome rock musician, father of daughters, husband of wife, complainer of old age, and yet appreciator of old age (and not yet 'old' age).
I've been secretly recording an album for the last two years and it will be released on the 15th August. I'm holding a listening party on Wednesday 2nd July at 8pm. Please come along to have a listen and a chat! See the link in the comment below for all the details!
Today is the second shortest day ever!
Earth is spinning just a bit faster this summer, making July 22, 2025, the second-shortest day on record. Today, Earth will complete its rotation about 1.34 milliseconds faster than the standard 24 hours. While imperceptible in everyday life, this is part of an unusual…
Holy crap! I just stumbled across this image I'd not seen before. Taken on the 21st July 2017 during the eclipse, here you see the moon moving in front of the sun, and the ISS moving in front of both of them. How cool is that!? Image credit: NASA/Bill Ingalls @ingallsimages
It's just over a week until the listening party for my album. Join me (please!) at 8pm BST on the 29th July to listen to the album in full, chat with me about it, and...err...meet all the amazing celebrities who will also be there (he lied, convincingly). mattkik.bandcamp.com/merch/eponymou…
Hey @esherifftv, I was surprised just now to see you were apparently following me, and then I saw it was this account with not too many followers: @Eliana_Sheriff1 Is this an imposter account and if so, did you know about it?
I saw a post yesterday from someone recommending the use of knuckledusters for punching Muslims. This is the @X response to my report of a violent threat.
News of the voting age being lowered is hilarious. All these idiots are coming out of the woordwork to proudly(?) exclaim how their seventeen-year-old child/grandchild can't spell "vote", tie their shoe, or make any sort of informed decision. It's not the flex you think it is.😂
I did not. For anyone who wants to catch up, it's available on iPlayer at 2:14:17.
Did you catch ✨FOUR✨ UK @esa astronauts on @BBCBreakfast this morning? 🧑🚀👩🚀👨🚀👨🚀
The front cover of my album shows all my guitars and pedals out, but when you flip the cover over, you see everything in the same place but in their cases. Standing all the guitars on a rack that's not designed to hold them like this was truly terrifying.
It's just one month until the release of my Eponymous album! Click here (mattkik.bandcamp.com/album/eponymous) to like, follow, dare I say pre-order? And in the meantime, listen out on the indie radio stations as I sent the second song to them today!

Timeflies! is the only song available for preview on my new album at the moment. Here's a video showing how I came up with the hardest solo I've ever written, and then worked out how the heck I was going to play it. youtu.be/2TKDsobIIAk
