Our first introduction to Matthew Good was the same as most other Canadian music fans in the mid-to-late 90s when songs like Everything Is Automatic, Apparitions, and Rico all caught our ears from Underdogs. That Matthew Good Band album was important on the Canadian alternative scene, and the follow-up, Beautiful Midnight ( Hello Time Bomb, Load Me Up, Strange Days), did some heavy lifting of its own as well.
In the time since the end of the band, Matthew Good has remained an important part of the Canadian music scene as a songwriter, performer, and mental health advocate. He's released seven solo albums, toured all over the country, learned about himself, and kept on going. And we're glad for all of it.
To get everyone ready for the Sunday, July 14, 2019 set at Roxodus Music Fest, we've put together a Top 10 list that includes five songs from the Matthew Good Band era and five songs from Matthew Good's solo career.
