Matthew Robinson played a strong solo acoustic set for a “small but mighty” audience at the  Owl Acoustic Lounge, Aug. 31.

 He played mostly original music, told a few stories and sang a few songs from his latest CD  and a “really old song,” for which he detuned his guitar.

 He talked of growing up in Prince Rupert, B.C. and  the paper and pulp mills burning down, then sang an excellent song about it.
