Description:

Born in November 1990, singer, songwriter and musician, Matthew John Corby grew up in the Sutherland Shire, Sydney. From the age of 6 he was playing guitar, learnt Piano (by ear) and began to sing.

With his parents blessing, at age 14, Matt toured Australia with the 'hip hop' band Iron and Clay. The band's goal was to reach out to high school kids, connecting through their music and tackling some of the relevant issues facing today's youth. Being on the road for 15 months with a professional band saw Matt's talent develop rapidly.

Matt finished touring in late 2006 and in 2007 reluctantly returned to school. Music was his one, true love and Matt felt that school was delaying the inevitable. In May, 2007 Matt woke up on the morning of the Sydney auditions and made a 'spur of the moment' decision to audition for season 5 of Australian Idol. His amazing talents both vocally and musically saw Matt make it all the way to final two culminating with Sydney Opera House grand final. The Idol experience gained Matt a sizable fan base impressing his fans with his left-of-centre song choices, natural charisma and sense of style.

Two years later, he’s gone into a folk direction, with his debut EP “Song For…” out through Scorpio Music on Friday 19th June. He’s been travelling as far afield as New York and London writing songs, playing shows and experiencing life on the road. He co-produced “Song For…” with Mcgowan Southwarth (John Legend / Ben Lee) and plays a diverse range of instruments on the album including banjo, glockenspiel, keys, bass and guitar.
