Biographie Matt Corby
Matt Corby
has certainly carved a unique path for someone that started his career aged 16 on a reality TV talent show in 2007. In 2009, he independently released his debut EP ‘Song For...’ before relocating to London and signing with renowned UK indie label Communion after capturing the attention of the label’s owner; Ben Lovett of Mumford and Sons fame. In July 2010, he recorded his second EP ‘Transition to Colour’ in London with Ian Grimble (The Libertines, Seasick Steve) and has since recorded the classic track ‘By My Side’ with iconic Aussie band INXS for their ‘Original Sin’ album and featured on a track on Julia Stone’s debut album ‘The Memory Machine’. Live, Matt continues to win over audiences and new fans touring the country with the likes of Mumford and Sons and most recently UK alternate rockers Elbow on their Australian tours. Matt has spent the last month bunkered down in the studio recording his new EP ‘Into The Flame’ which is scheduled for release next month. The four track ep was recorded at studio 301 with tim carr at the helm (ernest ellis, Jonathon boulet). The lead track from the EP ‘Brother’ is arguably Corby’s most assured work to date; it showcases a fresh injection of soulful vocals and bluesy melodies bound together with his unique style of melodic folk. Matt Corby new EP ‘Into The Flame’ out November 11.
