Matt Corby’s EP launch show at The Toff In Town, Melbourne, has sold out just two weeks after going on-sale. A second show has been added for Thursday December 1 and is on-sale today. The Sydney based singer songwriter is receiving a lot of love from National Alternative radio, who have picked up his current single ‘BROTHER’ from the forthcoming EP release ‘Into The Flame’.

Matt has spent the last 4 weeks on the road as part of his national Secret Garden Tour; a completely different experience to the EP Launch shows. Matt’s fans from around Australia have nominated themselves to host an intimate acoustic gig in their back garden. Fans have to apply for spots at the shows and, if successful, receive a private invitation to the show of their choice.

With 100 spots per show and 40 garden shows this year, the initiative has already seen over 3000 fans have the opportunity to experience an utterly unique Matt Corby performance from towns as far flung as Mackay and Maryborough. Matt says of the shows “It has been an incredible experience to play these special shows for fans. Its stripping things right back to basics – just me and a guitar and 100 close friends.”

The ‘Into The Flame’ EP was recorded at 301 in Sydney with Tim Carr at the helm (Ernest Ellis, Jonathon Boulet) and the lead track ‘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.

Catch Matt over the coming months on his ‘Secret Garden’ National tour or at one of the ‘Into The Flame’ EP launch shows at Sydney’s Oxford Arts Factory & Melbourne’s Toff In Town next month.
