In December, Goon released "Death Spells," the indie rock crew's first new material since their 2022 EP Red Ladder. Today, the band is announcing their new album Dream 3 and sharing the stunning lead single "Closer To."
When leader Kenny Becker brought an album's worth of songs to the studio, his marriage suddenly ended and the heartbreak gave new meaning to the music. “I began this record so excited,” he explains. “The songwriting was less scripted, letting me loosen up the reins a little and follow whatever idea seemed most interesting. It started off as a really joyful recording process. Then came the most devastating time of my life.”
The result is powerful and urgent; "Closer To" is some seriously cathartic, gorgeous indie rock with layers of wonder that build into a transcendent listen. See for yourself below.
