Early life

[edit]

Corby was born on 7 November 1990 and raised inOyster Bay, New South Wales.[1]

Corby's earliest musical memory is being driven past a guitar shop as a five year old and being captivated by the rows of shiny instruments in the window. His father John bought his son a three-quarter acoustic guitar for $80, on which Corby started having one lesson a week. The first song he learned to play was "Greensleeves".[2][3]

Corby attendedInaburra SchoolinBangor, New South Wales[4]where he grew up steeped in gospel; his passion for music fed first by renditions of "His Eye is on the Sparrow"and later by a love forCrosby, Stills, Nash and Young.[5]Corby attendedShirelivechurch with his family.[6]

Corby's school principal encouraged him to sing at a school assembly where he performed a song fromSister Act 2.[7]

By the time he was 10, Corby had been trained classically by an opera singer and was making tentative steps into musical theatre, playing a minor role in a production ofCain and AbelandSutherland Shire Light Opera Company's take onThe Secret Garden.[2]

At age 13, Corby joined a church band called Iron and Clay,[8]Corby left the group just before his 16th birthday, and got a job making sandwiches atSubwaybefore going back to school in Year 11, which coincided with hisAustralian Idolappearance.[2]

At age 16, Corby auditioned for thefifth seasonofAustralian Idol,where he finished as runner-up.[6]Years later, he described participating in the competition as being a "big f***ing mistake,"[9]describing how the struggle to forge his own identity post-idol was bigger than most could have seen from the outside. "I took all the negatives out of that (Idol) and thought 'Bugger, I've ruined everything'".

One aspect ofAustralian Idolthat the media speculated about was the number of Christian musicians among the finalists. The media suggested that Christians were "stacking" the voting to keep "their" artists on the show.[6]Corby rejected those suggestions by stating that he wasn't part of a big church and wasn't promoting himself as religious.[10]

After the Idol finale, Corby passed on a record deal offered bySony Music Australia.[2]

The week after he turned 18, Corby landed in London, staying in a friend's attic.[2]

Corby said to Matt and Alex ofTriple J:"It's stomping on the ground and clapping. It feels good to have that as a composition in a weird way, it's just your voice and everyone who would maybe want to do a cover of that if they so wish, it'll always sound different because they'll have to harmonise with their own [voice]."[20]

In February 2019, Matt released a mini-documentaryBehind Rainbow Valleydocumenting the recording and creative process of theRainbow Valleyalbum. Speaking of the influence of his newborn son Hugh on the creation of the album, Corby states "I wanted to create something that was almost instructional for my little boy... A reference for him of the way I see reality and the simple truths that I've come across. The lyrics are simple truths. I'm not trying to be too clever or poetic. If anything it was," This is the way I see the world and this is the way I feel about it ".[25]

Corby embarked on the 2019Rainbow Valley Tourin Europe, the UK, Australia and New Zealand but many dates were cancelled due to the pandemic towards the end of the tour.[26][27][28]

Personal life

[edit]
Corby performing atEasterfest2008

Corby and his sister Grace, grew up in the Christian faith after their parents became Christian when Corby was two years old. Corby would sing in church and stated in 2008, “When I was 13, I started touring with a ministry team and we went around schools and churches, promoting Jesus and tackling depression issues and stuff like that. I did that for a couple of years. So I've sort of been in church my whole life and it's been fun”.[10]Going into Australian Idol, Corby wondered how his faith would fit in with the show, but stated that it made him self-reliant and brought him closer to God through his own personal drive into bible study.[10]Corby headlinedEasterfest,a Christian music festival in 2008 and aHillsongUnited convention.[10][33][34]

Although growing up as a strong Christian,[10]Corby is no longer religious, but does understand the draw of a church for young families in particular to have a community connection and collective moral of kindness.[3]Corby once stated "I'm a stoner and I don't really have much sympathy for religion any more, I basically believe that human beings are pure entities when they're born, and they have the ability to do whatever they want to change the Earth in a positive way. And it's just... they get lied to, and in the process of becoming an adult that ends up f***ing up the world."[35]

By the time he was 20 he was reading books on philosophy and neuroscience, the latter because he wanted to know how the brain functions, partly because of his experiences with depression and anxiety. "People have said I have depression before, especially when I was younger," he offers. "People were like, you should really go see someone. But I just thought, no, I'm pretty sure the human brain is capable of so much more than what I'm being told I'm capable of. When people say you need help it's like, do I? With what? And if you could just tell me what I need help with, couldn't I just go and work on it myself?" His search for self led him to spiritual authors such asEckhart Tolle,and to experimenting withmagic mushrooms:"You take mushrooms and then you go, I have no problems," he explains. "I am an ant walking around this planet in a speck in the middle of nowhere. And that's the truth, it's all we are."[36]

Corby's musical influences include artists such asJeff Buckley,Lauryn Hill,Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young,Sufjan Stevens,Patrick Watson,Scott Mathews,Nick Drake,Nina Simone,Otis Redding,Bon Iver,Bob Dylan,Buddy Guy,Charles BradleyandSam Cooke.[37]Corby is good friends with Australian musicianJarryd James,whom Corby credits with having helped with his musical development.[38]

In early 2018, Corby became a father with his first child Hugh.[39]Speaking toBeat Magazineregarding the way fatherhood has changed Matt's perspective, he states "Most of my life, music has been the number one focus. And now it sort of doesn't fit in that category anymore – it's really important, but, it's not as important as my child...When I come back to music, I'm then a lot happier and it's not like I'm constantly exposing myself to only music, and then getting really annoyed about it, or getting hard on myself."[40]

Corby plays guitar, piano, drums, flute amongst other instruments.[41]

Corby currently resides with his kelpie Django, partner and 2 kids on his five-acre rainforest property called Rainbow Valley nearByron BayNSW.[3]
