Road Warriors GOODING Bring Their Heart To UK


New Single ‘Oblivion’ Taken From US Indie Rockers Latest Album ‘We Are The Dark Stars’

Billy Driver (Bass), Jesse Rich (Drums), Gooding (Guitar/Vocals), and Jenny Wood (Guitar/Vocals) are GOODING – alternative indie rockers hailing from Kansas USA.  In the states, they have travelled the roads of Kansas, Colorado, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas and the rest, delivering rock ‘n’ roll with a poignancy that rekindles the ghosts of Americana.

Due for release on Monday 6th October, new single ‘Oblivion’ is taken from their acclaimed, raw and intimate album We Are The Dark Stars.  Produced by Kendall Stephens (Robert Randolph, Buddy Guy), this album has helped them feature on over 50 TV programmes and adverts stateside.  The album has been toured stateside as only this band knows how. For example, they have played 800 shows in 157 cities over the last 8 years, learning through trial by fire what it means to be road warriors – with a van going up in flames, stolen gear and a string of Motel 6’s – and now they’re gunning for the UK with a set of dates in support of the new track.

The band not only brings a tight live set and tons of USA energy with them – they are also ambassadors for community, ecology and charity.  They use a fan-funded eco tour bus, and donate gigs to support men and women serving in the armed forces.  During their latest US tour, they concurrently ran a Financial Literacy Tour, performing in schools en route, and introducing students to the reality of building their dreams slow and steady instead of believing the hype of overnight success.

Vocalist/Guitarist Gooding:

“As a band, we play hard and have fun. We also like to show support for things we believe in. Today’s quick-fix society idolises the fast buck, but reality, away from the TV, is about being good at what you want to do and building a career out of respect and hard work, alongside helping your community locally, nationally and around the globe –and we want to do our part.”

This is real music for real people – edgy indie/rock with an honest ethos and good time vibes.
