Consistent, honest and forthright about everything from life to music, Matthew Good is one
of few Canadian musicians that requires no introduction.
In 2007, that candidness revealed itself as Hospital Music, an album dedicated to the ordeal
Good was thrust into when dealing with bipolarity. Using the creativity of music to work
through the revelation and realism of that diagnosis, Good and his followers formed an
unbreakable bond based on what proved to be one of his most impeccable albums. Hospital
Music ventured beyond Canadian borders, finding lifelong, passionate fans across North
America thanks to Good's genuine account of a personal journey battling mental illness to
find balance and happiness.
In 2009, Good's sincerity finds him in an enviable place: alive, feeling fine and more inspired
than ever before. His personal anguish and frustrations dealt with, Good now tackles new
territory: the outside world. He has dubbed this journey "Vancouver", a dedication to and
examination of his experiences living in the world-renowned city for the better part of his life;
the land responsible for forming many of his personal reflections and opinions on the world.
Good broaches all spectrums of that home, delving into the individual, economic, and social
impact Vancouver's many facets incite. From straightforward rock to the infusion of strings
which offer a lushness and bold atmosphere to the album, "Vancouver" offers fans the
familiarity of Good's inherent style yet accents and bolsters his need for diversity and
advancement.
On "The Vancouver National Anthem," Good has many observations about the
contradictions of what's going on within the city, a track boasting/solidifying the union of
Good and artist Pete Yorn. Becoming fast friends by way of mutual admiration, there was no
doubt that Yorn was compelled to document their bond through recording together.
As with the bulk of Good's catalogue, Vancouver was recorded at The Warehouse Studio, a
comfortable, familiar working environment Good could almost call his personal space at this
point in time. Joined by the majority of his live band-journeymen and session players who
have truly connected with Good's own vision and direction-"Vancouver" is easily Good's
most coherent, enduring, and indelibly appreciable work to date.
