Stumbled across Matt Corby a while back... he was a finalist on "Australian Idol" in 2007, but thankfully dodged that bullet and is now putting out some of the most beautiful music ive heard for a long time.

This was one of the first tracks I heard - I was blown away by the live performance on this tv show - just a voice, a guitar, and such confidence and absorption in the song hes singing

His voice is hauntingly familiar to Jeff Buckley, who was once described as a choirboy singing in a wehouse.

Some other tracks if you like that:
