MATT CORBY will promote his debut album Telluric with a gig at Leeds Stylus on March 4, as part of a national tour.

The definition of the word Telluric is 'of the earth', and it’s a concept that runs through the album, connecting nature and human activity.

The album was written, recorded and produced in a cottage in rural Australia after Matt had spent several years in studios around the world working through his demons with “stony grit and determination”.

Matt first made waves in public conscience in the UK in 2012 with his track Brother, a fiercely bold and resonant track capturing both pure emotion and soaring melodies.

He toured relentlessly in the UK, writing and producing a debut album in Los Angeles were disliking the results and scrapping the whole project.
