Good Effort has unveiled their single, “Forest Fire”
Sudbury, ON-based band Good Effort released their latest single, “Forest Fire,” on September 21, 2022.
Carefully crafted, this song describes the struggle of cleaning up the mess of someone’s disastrous actions in your life. Musically, the song is cleverly balanced with a steady groove. It is a tug-of-war between feelings of relief and anger.

Where do you tend to pull inspiration from when writing?
Inspiration for writing comes where most writers get their inspiration – experience. Experience can be the most brutal of teachers or something worth reliving in your mind. Each one of us has our own unique experiences and has had events that shape our outlook and perspective going forward. We enjoy highlighting those moments and embedding them into our music and lyrics.
Do you have any upcoming shows or festivals you’d like to tell us about?
We have spent some time refining and recording our music over the last several months and are excited to share this new content. Live shows are definitely in the works as we prepare a sweet list with original music and cover songs. We have been asked to join lineups for local festivals and events in the future and are looking forward to bringing the “Good Effort” energy to the stage!
What’s your goal for 2022?
Moving into the latter months of 2022, we are currently wrapping up some recordings and are aiming to secure some live shows in the near future. We would love to connect with more artists and get to know our fans better! We are putting in some good effort!
