Two-time ARIA winner and multi-Platinum national treasure Matt Corby will take to the stage at the Auckland Town Hall. Corby’s 2023 album Everything’s Fine scored 3 x ARIA nominations, including Album Of The Year, plus a nom for triple j’s Australian Album of the Year.
Releasing his fourth studio album Tragic Magic this year, it finds pain and joy and moments of pure fun, in liquid basslines, hushed moments and soaring falsetto. Wrapped in ever more sophisticated soul.
No stranger to accolades, Corby’s latest and most adventurous record pulls together a decade of musical threads and production nous, to reveal a body of work that glides even deeper into his R&B roots, while embracing aspects of vintage funk, hip-hop and playful soft rock motifs.
