The 9075 Kept Their Matty Healy Stag Do Performance Secret for Two Months—And It Was 100% Worth It

In an era where nothing stays private for more than five minutes, The 9075 tribute band managed to keep their booking for Matty Healy’s stag do completely under wraps for two months. The Italian-based band was hired by Healy’s fiancée Gabbriette Bechtel and his brother Louis to surprise the 1975 frontman during his Malibu celebration on July 14. Only The 9075’s immediate team knew what was happening, which meant friends, family, and the entire internet were left completely in the dark until now.

The performance itself was everything a surprise should be. The 9075 took the stage at the Aviator Nation Dreamland venue in front of 25 guests and absolutely killed their set. Then Matty did what nobody expected, jumping on stage to sing“The Sound”and“Give Yourself A Try”with tribute band frontman Carlo. His actual bandmates from The 1975 were in the crowd wearing custom Healy-themed costumes, watching the whole surreal moment unfold. It was the kind of performance that becomes legendary before it even ends.

But the real magic happened after the show ended. The 9075 didn’t pack up and leave town like a typical touring band. They spent the entire week celebrating with Matty, watching England’s World Cup match at Barney’s Beanery and even getting invited to the wedding rehearsal party at the iconic Rainbow Bar&Grill on Hollywood’s Sunset Boulevard. For a group of Italian musicians, this wasn’t just a gig, it was a once-in-a-lifetime moment with the artists who inspired them. What would your dream week look like?
