Learning from the grit-laden soul music pumped through the water of the Muscle Shoals, AL area, Goose Gossett is a singer/songwriter that refuses to let genre define him. From Dylan-esque folk to Steve Earle’s country, to Wison Pickett’s Blues, all is fair game. “It all tells the story of the struggles of life, love, loss, right, wrong; why does a saxophone or a steel guitar dictate what a song it?”
Moving to Nashville at age 20, Goose took the next step in his musical journey and began finding new influences in genre blending artists and songwriters like John Prine and John Hiatt. Working relentlessly with little ground, Goose struggled to successfully put out an album. Finally, in 2011 we’ll see the first release from the Goose. “As the Fog Rolls Off The River” is an eclectic mix of everything from folk to down right dirty blues. Romance, politics, and a love for Alabama are all covered by the 7 song EP.
