Matthew Good has sold over 600,000 records. He has been misinterpreted at least as often as he has found like-minded listeners. Frequently branded as brash and given to distemper, Matthew Good has never been reserved about sharing his opinions and fighting for his values. Growing up in the Vancouver suburb of Coquitlam, Good was influenced by a wide range of musicians. Whether Bob Dylan and Billy Bragg or The Clash and SNFU, the attitude and outspokenness would continue as hallmarks of his own artistic endeavour. Matthew Good has produced exceptional music that has grown and diversified as he himself has. 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. 1995 – Last of the Ghetto Astronauts 1996 – Raygun 1997 – Underdogs 1999 – Beautiful Midnight 2001 – The Audio of Being 2003 – Avalanche 2004 – White Light Rock and Roll Review 2005 – In A Coma (Best of) 2007 – Hospital Music Matthew has 2 chart spots on US college radio including one #1 and 4 ads in the first week – Oct 1,‘07 Signed exclusive USA agency representation with Bruce Solar of The Agency Group – Sept ‘07 Matthew Good was the US Itunes ‘In the Spotlight’ feature for the week of August 28, ‘07 ‘Born Losers’ the first single off the record Hospital Music is still in the top 5 on Canada radio after being released to radio June 4th.
