Drum roll please…..enter stage right, Matt Corby, an incredibly talented 19 year old singer songwriter all
the way from Cronulla (one of Sydney’s southern beach suburbs and home of the pitiful Cronulla Sharks Rugby League team).

Matt is recording his debut album around the world with a stellar support team, and Shiny somehow, miraculaously, joyously and happily got the call to join in on the good times.

Matt spent much of 2009 in London with incredible results: he recently signed a worldwide publishing deal with BMG out of the UK and has signed to Communion, one of the hottest independent labels in the UK, run by Ben Lovett of Mumford and Sons’ fame, who will be releasing Matt’s EP In September in the UK.

Until that’s released you should listen out for his new ‘My False’, a stomping folk anthem recorded in Melbourne with Dann Hume, who produced Lisa Mitchell’s debut album ‘Wonder’, and it’s “b-side” ‘Lighthome’, recorded in London late last year, all stark and soulful – the two songs will be available online from May 21.

More news on Matt’s national tour in July next week.
