Matthew Good (District Wine Village)
2022-08-25 20:00 - 22:00
Canadian singer/songwriter Matthew Good rose to prominence in the mid-’90s fronting the popular alt-rock group Matthew Good Band. A crafty songwriter with a strong melodic sense and a somewhat brash outspokenness, Good led MGB from regional success in their native Vancouver to Juno-winning, double-platinum status over the course of four albums before the group disbanded in 2002.
The following year, he made his solo debut with Avalanche, a more brooding and thoughtful stylistic departure that featured accompaniment from the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra on a number of tracks.
A more stripped-down live approach was taken for his follow-up, White Light Rock & Roll Review, released the following year. Arriving in 2005, In a Coma compiled highlights from his years with MGB as well as more recent solo material.

With perfect sensibility, her introspective lyrics leave just enough room for well-crafted, pop-friendly hooks.
