The bluesy, folky sensation just finished a run of shows that peaked with a record-equalling five sold-out Corner shows in Melbourne.

His next plans include trips back to the UK and the US to work on his proper debut album and play sell-out shows in London, New York and Los Angeles.

He’s also planning to continue his Secret Garden shows overseas, the likes of which kicked off his recent Australian success.

‘Soul’s A Fire’ is the next single from his platinum-selling Into The Flame EP, which contains the Hottest 100 number three hit ‘Brother’.

There’s a fan pre-sale from 9am to 6pm Thursday 8 March, and tickets for the rest of us go on sale from 9am this Friday 9 March from www.mattcorby.com.au.
