Hey everybody, it's June again here in this old town. You should stop by the Goose, have a beer, and listen to some great music!
Saturday the 1st it’s orchestral
pop from SF’s Fox & Woman, country pop from Alice Wallace of LA, and indie
Afro pop from The Sunmonks. Fox is a female fronted art pop group with multiple levels of harmonies and poetic lyrics. Alice is a dynamic country diva with great songs and a very talented band. Sunmonks combine brass-flourished world rhythms and tight-nit lyrical harmonies.
On Wednesday the 5th we have our weekly Northern
Soul! & Cornhole! night with rare soul and rocksteady in the front and
corn-sack bag-toss in the back featuring musical decisions by Avi Jones, Austin Robins, and Cherry Baby! Come out and get ridiculous with us every Wednesday night!
Thursday the 6th is the return of the Goose’s first
ever performer: Marty Cohen & the Sidekicks play classic Sacramento
grown Americana. Get over here and enjoy some classic local music at a your favorite pub.
Friday is a real banger with neo soul artist Hans & the
Hot Mess, wild Tom Waits-esque Americana from the Midway Marvels, sweet
rocksteady reggae from Sacto Soul Rebels, and looped blues harp and beat boxing
from Memphis’s Brandon Bailey. Brandon puts a real unique twist on the old blues genre. Sacto Soul Rebels features the sweet and lovely vocals of Megan Ugarte. Midway Marvels is led by the mega talented Bob Waller who always brings a heavy dose of muy bueno. Hans is this towns very own power house crooner with a band that hits you right where it counts!
Saturday is the Secret Lives of Squirrels CD
release with Fresno’s Sea of Sound and Nice Monster. Squirrels are heavy smart rock with thick guitars and bring a brand new CD for you to put into your brain slot. Sea of Sound is Cali alt rock at it's purist. Nice Monster is progressive indie music by long time Sacto music creationist, Matthew Gerken. How 'bout a Guinness
float!?!?
