2004. Los Angeles-based songwriter john gold has just completed what will no doubt be his breakthrough record. This is a beautiful, soulful collection of songs, arranged with horns, strings, bracing guitars, and vintage keyboards.
Bio / Background
Like so many of the most satisfying artists to pass through the Fold, John Gold is neither following a trend nor likely to inaugurate any new ones; he's just another quietly gifted singer-songwriter with a wonderfully self-indulgent, multi-instrumental wanderlust. On his new LP, The Eastside Shake, Gold supports his semisweet chocolate baritone with a slew of idiosyncratic arrangements - a folkie waltz turns into a Harlem-meets-Dixieland jazz joint on "There's a (W)hole," a ham-fisted piano ballad mutates into a Dark Side of the Moon-style synth odyssey on "Breakyoudown," a standard 4/4 beat segues unexpectedly into a seasick 6/8 coda on "Randy" - all musical non sequiturs that reinforce the tone of unaffected sincerity in lyrics like "was it the fucking high school that you went to that made you the cynic?" - LA Weekly
