When you’re sad and down in the dumps, totally lachrymose, lugubrious, and despondent, what’s the one thing that can lift you up from the muck and mire and cheer you up? That’s right, donuts!
As we recently reported, Matt Corby fans can relate to a few of the adjectives we just listed. The songwriter has been forced to cancel two Sydney concerts after falling ill, including one canceled at the eleventh hour.
But the amazing folks at Krispy Kreme have stepped in to cheer up the despondent Corby fans of Australia. As WSFM reports, they’re offering everyone with a ticket to Corby’s cancelled shows a free donut to cheer them up.
“We know Matt Corby has a huge love for doughnuts so can only hope our small gesture for fans will bring some joy to an otherwise grey and rainy Sydney day!” said Krispy Kreme CEO and all-round great guy Andrew McGuigan in a statement.
“We are wishing Matt a huge ‘get well soon’ from the whole team at Krispy Kreme and have also sent him some American Classics to hopefully aid recovery.” Yes, it’s all just corporate machinations, but at least there’s free donuts involved.
“To launch the American Classics we’ve been working with songwriters and Spotify to make sure it’s not only the taste buds which are in for a treat…but the ears too.”

“When recovered, we would love Matt to cover one of the original doughnut tunes… who knows, we could have a future hit on our hands!”
According to WSFM, the first ten in a given store with their ticket will get a donut from Krispy Kreme’s new American Classics range and everyone else will score an original glazed (which, we’ve gotta say, you can’t beat).
The offer is only redeemable in NSW and does not include 7-Eleven stores, so head on over to the Krispy Kreme website and find your nearest store. The offer ends at midnight tonight (Wednesday, 13th April) and you will need to provide a print-out of your ticket.
