Biography

Mathew James Willis (born 8 May 1983) is a British singer-songwriter. He first found fame as a member of the British band, Busted.

Busted was an English band consisting of Willis on bass guitar, James Bourne rhythm guitar and Charlie Simpson lead guitar and occasionally drums. Busted formed in 2001 and disbanded on 14 January 2005. While Matt was a member of Busted, the band earned a place in the Guinness World Record by selling out London’s Wembley Arena six nights in a row.

Willis co-wrote many Busted songs:

* What I Go to School For (Single)
* You Said No (Single)
* Year 3000 (Single)
* Sleeping With The Light On (Single)
* Air Hostess (Single)
* She Wants to Be Me (Single)
* 3am (Single)
* Thunderbirds Are Go! (Single)
* Losing you
* All The Way
* Dawsons Geek
* When The Day Turns Into Night
* Everything I Knew
* Loser Kid
* Late Night Sauna
* My Good Friend
* Last Summer
* Fake
* Better Than This

On January 14th, 2005 Busted announced the departure of Charlie Simpson from the band in order to concentrate on work with his side-project Fightstar. In the same press conference, Willis and Bourne announced they would not continue as a duo, meaning that after three years in the charts, Busted had split.

Shortly prior to, and immediately after the demise of Busted, the press reported disputes between the band members. However, Willis has always stated there is no hostility between him and Simpson, and continues to support Fightstar. However in an interview Willis did state that there were rivalries between James Bourne and Simpson.
