Matthew Good

Matthew Frederick Robert Good (born June 29, 1971, Burnaby, British Columbia) is a Canadian rock musician. He was the lead singer for the Matthew Good Band, one of Canada's most successful alternative rock bands in the 1990s, before dissolving the band in 2002. Other band members included drummer Ian Browne, guitarist/keyboardist Dave Genn, and original bassist Geoff Lloyd, later replaced by Rich Priske. In the years since the Matthew Good Band's disbanding, Good has pursued a solo career and established himself as a political activist.

Future Work

As far as the future, Good has been demoing songs, but presently has no concrete plans for a new album. While promoting In a Coma, Good noted that he might use the release of the compilation to mark the end of the first era of his career, where he could then move on to write "weirder" music. In a recent interview with a fan site http://www.matthewgood.org/mblog/?p=3, Good also mentioned that he would like to undertake an acoustic tour in 2006, and may spend the rest of the year reworking songs in his catalog to fit such a tour.
