Event Description
After two critically acclaimed and massively successful solo acoustic tours, MATTHEW GOOD comes back for the first time in three years with a BRAND NEW BAND to tour Canada this spring.
His most recent release - his 3rd solo recording – Hospital Music debuted at #1 on the Soundscan Chart in Canada, took the #1 spots for Alternative Album and Digital Album and just received a Juno Award nomination for Rock Record of the Year. The latest single "I'm a Window" sits in the Top 10 at radio, following the chart topping "Born Losers".
Matthew's return to Canada in May, comes hot off a tour in the US where “Hospital Music” made some exceptional noise the week of its release. The album reached #17 at the iTunes USA store after “Born Losers” was downloaded more than 340,000 times while featured as the free download of the week. No small feat for an artist without a label in the US.
For more than a decade, Matthew Good has produced exceptional music that has grown and diversified as he has himself. Further, he has championed his beliefs by using what influence he has to speak out for human rights, true democratic freedoms, and equality for all people.
“Hospital Music’s” success came after a very tumultuous and difficult time personally for Matthew Good and is fully documented on his popular website/blog. Read about in full detail here: www.matthewgood.org/biography-hospital-music/
