(BHM) Goose has shared their new single, "Royal," premiering everywhere today via No Coincidence Records. The track plants its feet firmly from the first note, setting up a tight, muscled groove with its bombastic opening riff.
Dirty guitar licks, accented by playful Wurlitzer hits, introduce the story of Royal, a transient musician whose burning ambition threatens to get the best of him. "Royal" bounces and heaves with 70's roots rock sensibility; stutter-step lyrics give way to the scorching tone of Rick Mitarotonda's guitar as he uncorks a gritty, high-octane solo pushed forward by a slapping bass and a driving, metronomic beat.
Having recently made their triumphant sold-out headline debut at New York City's world-famous Madison Square Garden, Goose returns to the road next week with an eagerly anticipated performance at Park City, UT's Park City Song Summit (August 14-16), followed by headline dates, festival appearances, and more. Highlights include a one-night-only show as special guest to Dave Matthews Band set for Sunday, August 31 at George, WA's The Gorge Amphitheatre, a sold-out headline performance at Burlington, VT's Waterfront Park (September 14), and two-night stands at Louisville, KY's historic The Louisville Palace (September 23-24) and Richmond, VA's Allianz Amphitheater at Riverfront (October 2-3), as well as the band's 12th annual Goosemas holiday celebration, set for December 12-13 at Providence, RI's Amica Mutual Pavilion. $1 from every ticket sold for Goosemas will benefit Backline, a 501(c)(3) non-profit that connects music industry professionals and their families with mental health and wellness resources.
